It is so automatic it isn't even funny. It will create the needed subdirectories "anchored" in the current directory without any extra commands, just: "arc x arcname", quite a far call from zoo, and it's archives are more compact than zoo's too from the tests that I've done. I especially like the fact that arc is compatible in the DOS and Mac environments too since I have a consulting job which uses these. Anyone interested can find it at atari.archive.umich.edu under the atari/utilities/archivers directory. I highly recommend it. JT internet: help_jt@vax1.acs.jmu.edu or bayers@hub.cs.jmu.edu
