[comp.sys.mac] ARC to decompress DOS files in MAC o/s

simon@alberta.uucp (Simon Tortike) (02/16/90)

I am sure that I have seen a reference to an ARC-compatable utility on
the net before.  I have several large compressed files on a couple
of DOS-formatted 3.5-inch disks, which I wish to transfer directly
to my Mac IIx and decompress within the Mac o/s.  I know how to move the
files to my hard disk, but ARC (spelling?) was used to compress the original
files.  Is there an ARC for the Macintosh that knows how to decompress these
files?  If so, could someone tell me where I can ftp it from over the Internet?

If anyone else is interested in this, e-mail to me and I shall pass on the
information I get.  All pointers are welcome!
