MSDOS delimits lines in files with CR/LF, UNIX with just LF. zoo a bunch of files unde one OS and un-zoo the archive under the other, and you have to edit every file.

This is one of my two complaints about ZOO. The other is that it's pretty slow - not as slow as ARC, but not as fast as PKARC. Both ARC and ZOO files require editing when unpacked. I still use ZOO over ARC since it supports directories, and is much more portable. - Tim Iverson iverson@cory.Berkeley.EDU ucbvax!cory!iverson
