Why can't we simply send everyone a copy of ZOO? Note: I have not used ZOO. I have used ARC and pkarc. Personal Note: I cannot stand pkarc. I prefer ARC's one (1) program that does the job just as well. I don't like invoking different commands to 'v' an archive and 'e' an archive. #==============================================#=========================# # Eugene Tramaglino -- tlhingan@unsvax.uns.edu # USS Mahagonny, NCC-1929 # # 1450 E Harmon 207A, Las Vegas, NV 89119 #=========================# # Data: "All paths are equally dangerous." # Member, Institute of # # Riker: "Let's go!" # General Semantics. # #==============================================#=========================#
