I think the discussion of going to zoo as a standard is no longer
germane. Now that the source for the lharc algorithm is out I would
expect to see a portable archiver for UNIX/DOS/AmigaDOS/ST500/Mac
shortly.

Note that the lzhuf code as distributed is NOT portable, is doesn't run
on 32 bit machines, and/or machines which don't so LSB first. Anyone
wanting my current partially fixed version may write for it. Compression
is typically 10-30% better than pkzip, and it's all freely copyable
without fee requested.
