Rahul, surely you understand that nobody is going to settle for having to do
a little extra WORK without an argument...?  The messages I've seen on here
castigating your license are only slightly less stupid and annoying than the

(Then again, just about the only compressed archives I ever use are built
via "find . -print | afio -o - | compress -b12"....)
