It is called shadow.arc. There are more ways to compress a whole disk ! One is darc.ttp which invokes arc.ttp for each subdirectory rekursively. Another one is FOLDER.PRG (also called AR.PRG). It compresses a whole path including all subdirectories ! As far as I can remember by heart it is written by somebody at the Tech. Univ. of Berlin... It's seems not to be known widely, although I saw it quite often in BBSs here in Berlin. If some Bitnet-User sends me his mail-address I'll send a copy of it, so you can get your own impression of it. I'm not mailing it outside the bitnet, because that would mean to spend a lot of money (0.60 DM/KB via Pyramid or 1.10 DM/KB via unido !) I do not have.
