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.

-munch- 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. begin 644 pkpat35.arc M&@A/0P`E)24E)24E)24E<@```+$.=D^H)IP````,=4#4L(%#(,$&"@+6"'-#6 M($.$`6/(B$$&A$2*$$'0P&%#C$:.8A"&,8@#89LW=D#<>2.G(APZ<K:4"2,F; M3!<6,!"*='C#)$J5+%W"E$G3)HL8.A6,O$@&H1H]%F70,)-TY,:.3MU`W7A#3 M1M([".,@U``:"$]4`"4E)24E)24E)25T````L0YI3[K?G0````QU0-2H$48@^ MP08*`M;(D4,@0X0!8]`8(P:$1(H00=#`$>:&1HXW$!8<&`9AFS=V0-QY(X<,P M"#ATY&PI$T9,F2XL8"`4Z3"'290J6;J$*9.F39PQ=BHH>%$,0C5N]%BD0::,X MTH(;.SZ-^C&,504([R",@U`#&@A214%$+DU%`"4E)24E>`4``+$.<51/S+<(1 M```,#10D&`BB()0E0:0,`6%GAHL:`0,>3+BPX4,08<B0*4,&(X@Q;]R827.FG MCIPP=-*$!#&231D0=-Y@9,/FS1V8:%Z";`,'91HQ:=BDH9,GX!LX*5=N-!.F> M#ALZ<V#*%*,331@W9SBZ*!CD*9HW=<Z@P?DR#%"A1*5^M(JU3$`Z.4$L;?HT* M:IJH84"<>?.F8YJ-85B0!9&&I\LV9=S0\;GR+@@X?.6`H#JFZ1RW"E#$2('1" M#8C$=M+("8E8,<,P<M*8=4DX:ITY=<+0S`/"31F.'-5"3F,Z)MF`($62-,G8^ M<\LR@E'(X`Q79\B1)4\F-1[TY9TP<^B4B4KF[IJ`<WJ.0=ZY(XH9G(?"#+-FT M.\S"+WT?35S^\>CQ<Z(V9UD]X)V<MME1AF03*=0:"'+4X<96("1!!PAW@,5&[ M1U8).-EMGK51QQAC446'=I*E8<9O"NS44TIG#47;4=/)50933D$%X8`OS5$8: M'&S0%EX98XB81FYW##56<P&!)AIIB3UH!VJJB<%:=W+P2$>.@K7!'F]G#'8<U M"`K:AM\<J.410D0*)&&&8$*U!P)B@N4!%H17/>@;AU=E-=A<,:(P1PJ"B5''D M@V[6(5=()]#A7YQJ7?9@'7`,%AQTQ+5XG&#[V6C8=@\B!E=?K;TETXD<#@;'\ M:&><U(9N`UIIFV(YKE5G?''A61>#5.3T5H2/H13J<5$]L=!5'3U!!491@D!$@ M$4)4<00(<XR1&E)1_9=&J$'2E"L='$J$D($6U0`""L""X,03(`B+1!%2@&`%, MNE,D\803S,E$9UN#T8&KK%"Y$-`3S<D1Y&6#S2>=2IZ],6*!"SE6A1-!&&%$I M$4-04001.GPFH&?[M>#&&`&%J_&#<P2);4YXN='1?H\.-_!*6U;+!K,I61NA- M'&N,J4!`4I2!6!M42>:;&&&,L0:7C2+LPA!/-'&A&6\4BY)V/*6$E6ZZCC54Q M0&J\]B!O'V%7XQN:HH&E7F^X=\=H6-E,)D&0'(!T$U!(4<04[;YK;!%&!%$%8 M$U20286\;-F),MBC;F>C4B_2)>=4+YGA5*LF^N2D=4(&1!%#WJ*0A@ME;.6&I M3"+,$4=L<XB-E0B<)>B&#F0>F^RR1K\-`@^^DAF$G'%1=09O;HQM\&#-/DL'' MI3DY72P-'X&M*AGZR=1=>&R$490"^Z%6!G9J474MAUH5)$2-)L&*TIUWX2C]3 M@45@$43$3&014)JP-OX&339AR?K-"K0@:`TVX``"_S@(B`QD$`,8Z``&``3!( M$&X``QL((0A%"`(,"@B#@C3A"58HB`:O\`0I$`$$4*!"NK80P0=V@04P2&$,E M`J*__X7A!BZ\@0`):$`$!@&&"VS@`R.8PA1:$(,:+`@'/0A"$8*`A$$P(0I[= MR$)!Q8"`'7EB#,@PPP+J0(H?O$$-9E!!2"A`"4[00A!!\$0:&*&)(*`!#FP@Z MAC2N40Q5-*`:'0B"&]``@2#PHA+$"`D#J/$&,B!30`:2@()0(0E-*,+=\K:W" MON'O;ZZBUWY2@IAOA8L,*'G)[_9#$;%9Z#B<P5?V,..XV22/)Y)CC<C&<CD[$ M9&YSG2O(YT`0NM%AQW1G0!V"%'2_@+A.62#<UA".EK39"<MVN'N)[GCGNQ%5F MREEI0`KQ:$2LER!O)\MKGES*%[WI52]*V/O92T"5$S(PZ'O,"A].QK>?YYF/# M-HY)W_JHT+[WI4%-^V$:_8*$E5[F;W\UR$L-`AK'`PXT"`IDH`.+P$,*_C"#E M01SB!T,XPA(6X80]7.$__Y>#''`T!P5%8$<3JD.&2K"'#QVC1(M8T21>=(DI0 M1&,,:#"&-LZTI@6=Z1"$4$<:Q"`&>?PB'PTPTV.A48TO=.,+"ZK&&_84CWH<G M:E.+$!`-`!H`````````````````````````````````````````````````/ M````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````` M````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````` M````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````` M````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````` M````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````` M````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````` 7````````````````````````````````` `` end size 2048
