With all this talk about Shrinkit/GS, is it true that there is going to be a Shrinkit version 3.0? What new features will this version have over the old version?

The main feature is that 3.0 can decode the new type of archive gs/shrinkit can make. There are some user-interface tweaks, but nothing special. (beta testers who see this: SHHHHhhhhh....) andy -- Yeah!

Unless I run into major unresolved problems, ShrinkIt 3.0 (which is *NOT* GS/ShrinkIt 1.0) will be released in 2 weeks. Thanks to Matt Deatherage and Dave Lyons at Apple IIDTS, I think I've squashed the last bug tonight. Beta testers can look for your 'dF' copies in the mail pretty soon. andy -- Yeah!

Andy,
Shouldn't you also mention that you added the revolutionary Andy-PAK
routine to SHK 3.0? It'll Shrink a hard disk into a 140k file - really!
Actually, SHK 3.0 is a complete face-lift for ShrinkIT. A lot of
quirks have been worked out of it, and some additional features have been
added. But, since Andy has a gag order on me, that's all I'll say. I do know
that I can say that the interface is even friendlier (if you can believe it!)
than 2.1a, and it's easier to navigate through your directories.
