There were some people talking about it a while back.  What ever became of it?

I'd like to add unstuffing to gs/shrinkit sometime, but that's probably
a while off -- you just have to use the arc 5.12 source code to get it to
work.  You also have to contend with the way that stuffit stores files.

How hard would it be for Andy to implement a version of ShrinkIt Mac?  The NuFX
format would be quite idea in a Mac environment as well as the Apple II
environment, especially with his GS-specific rendition.  He could be on to
something there, not to mention quite a profit if his GS-code could easily
port over to the Mac.

Gads, painful.  All of shrinkit-8 and shrinkit gs is written in assembler.
I think it would be more realistic to get andy McFadden to port over
his nufx packer than for me to port shrinkit.. only because he's got
C code and I don't.  Besides, I don't have ready access to a mac... and am not
entirely sure I want to, either. :-)
