Does anyone know if there is a CP/M version of ARC or PKARC?  I keep seeing
.ARC and .ARK files on various BBSs, but I can not find the animal that
creates them.

I've checked these out, and they are not MS-DOS .ARCs.  These are CP/M
programs that have been put into a .ARC format.  I have a program (UNARC.COM)
that will "unarc" them (it also works on MS-DOS .ARCs) but it does not create
them.

I have seen mentions of a program called NOAH that is supposed to create these
files, but it doesn't appear on any of the BBSs that I frequent.

Any information (especially about where I can get a copy of this program)
would be appreciated.  Thanks.
