SEA strikes again, taking PKWare to court Sept. 9.
Seems SEA does not like PKWare's PKPAK/PKUNPAK 3.61
reading and writing *.arc files.  I think the
complaint is along the lines of "contempt of court".
As I understand the agreement, PKWare can continue
reading/writing .arc files until 1/1/89, or have I
missed something?

I will publish details when I get them.

(I am not associated with either PKWare or SEA.
I just think the whole thing stinks.  Gee, I can
read and write *.arc files using DEBUG.  Maybe
SEA should sue me, IBM and Microsoft too.)
