Now that the world has fsanalyze to see how fragmented their disks
are when are we going to see a utility to unfragment them in place.
The MS-DOS world has had the Norton SD(and others) for quite a while
and I just got B.A.D for my Amiga a couple of weeks ago(highly
reccomended I might add) but nothing for Un*x except to backup and
restore.  That just seems incredible especially for those of use with
40 Mb hard disks and 360Kb backup medium.  Not really a starter.
Surely some hardworking programmer has such a thing and would be
willing to gain fame and fortune(doubtful) by giving it to the net.
