I have come across a somewhat serious deficiency with LHARC ... archives
which contain directories cannot be transported from UNIX to the ST (the
ST versions of LHARC and UNLZH do not convert from / to \).  I assume
things do not work in the other direction either, but I have not tested
that as yet.

I will forward this on to the folks that handle the ST and UNIX versions
that I have, but think everyone here should be aware of the problem.

Other than that, the disk savings of lharc are pretty impressive.
