I think we need, now more than ever, some sort of catalog to the actual file contents on SIMTEL20, in order to keep people from having to waste two hours and a disk to find out that there really isn't anything worthwhile in some mammoth .LBR or .LQR file that looks interesting from the outside. At least keep the .HLP and .DOC files in unsqueezed ASCII. (Please) Jim
