I used zoo on both my Amiga and Unix system to 'extract' the DNET stuff (after
poking around everywhere for a zoo for unix).  Turns out that on BOTH the Amiga
and the Unix machine, ZOO failed to keep the directory structure!!  Oh, well,
zoo -list told me what to put where, and it was cheaper than running down to
the store to see if there was a later vesion of zoo on a fish disk and forking
over 3 bucks.
