"What is a .ARC file" and its logical follow-up, "where can I get a copy" get
asked - and answered - SO frequently that maybe the net needs a new news
group, maybe call it 'net.micro.howto.arc' or 'comp.sys.arc'.  :-) :-)

There is another similar util called ZOO which is a very reasonable replacement
for ARC. It is a good bit faster, and generally more efficient. Also truly pd,
not shareware.
