Or are you going to counter by claiming that you want the Mac to use "real files" next? ++Brandon -- Brandon S.

I think ArcMac has already cleared that problem. It's just that I don't count ARC the best one available anymore. That other claim I don't dare/care to answer... -- Harri Valkama : email: hv@chyde.uwasa.fi (internet) Computer Centre, University of Vaasa : valkama@finfun (bitnet) P.O.BOX 700 : voice: +358 61 248426 SF-65101 VAASA FINLAND : site: 128.214.12.3

I was in a bad mood -- having just read 300 articles from net.idiots in various newsgroups, I was beginning to doubt that anyone who read the Usenet was equipped with a brain.

I don't remember who posted the original message, but I just finished porting
Booz, an archive extractor program for Zoo archives. I will be cleaning it
up for the next couple of days, then I will post it to comp.binaries.mac (or
if you want, I will mail it to you. It is not very large).
