Do you have PKARC Version 3.5?  If not, get that version.  (someone
said they'd be posting it 5-Mar)

The programs should be posted as PKX35A35.EXE, which is a self-
extracting archive that will create PKARC, PKXARC, and all
documentation when you run it.  (The PKARC documentation describes
the "patch" I will list below)

To disable squashing:
1.  Create a PKARC.CFG file in some convenient directory
    It should contain one line:  SQUASH=DISABLE
2.  Add to your AUTOEXEC.BAT file:  SET PKARC.CFG=<path>
    where <path> is the directory in which you put PKARC.CFG
(3) You can also add the line: ARCTIME=LATEST 
    to PKARC.CFG to timestamp the .ARC file with the original
    method.

The enclosed archive contains descriptions for directly patching
the PK*.COM files found in Phil Katz' PKX35A35.EXE distribution
so that SEA-compatible *.ARC files (no squashing) can be made
the default without requiring configuration files or environment
variables to be set up in advance.
