I've downloaded a file with the .sfx suffix attached. Do I need a decompr essor that specifically handles .sfx or does it self-decompress like .sda?

The differences are the .SFX files are generally smaller, since they are created by LHARC on the C128 under CS-DOS (REU required). Also, .SFX files can dissolve onto whatever disk/drive you specify, and they can be dissolved in C64 or C128 mode. Too bad they require a C128 and REU to create them, eh? -- begin 644 .signature G5&AI<R!S<&%C92!I;G1E;G1I;VYA;&QY(&QE9G0@8FQA;FLN#0H: end
