Does anyone know what the latest version of Jam Packer is and where to get it?
The latest I've seen is 3.0 pre-release version, but it doesn't seem to like
some of my .prgs

thanx,
      todd

I have a much better packer - The Pompey Pirates packer...
It packed a file from 200K to 24 K (takes 3 hours to pack, but only 1/2 sec
to unpack and start :-)  Should i post it to comp.binaries.... ?

The last release of the Jam Packer was V3.0 pre-release.  This may sound
contradictory, but V3 is such an improvement over V2 (even with a few
bugs and no docs) that we had to release it.

There should be a new version along in a few months, but we both have very
little free time at the moment.

To speed the release of the "real" V3.0 we would greatly appreciate
receiving any bug reports on V3.0 pre-release.  Particularly, what
programs it doesn't work with, and how it fails.  Indication of problems
with the interface would also be appreciated.
