[comp.sys.mac.programmer] VMS version of binhex, stuffit, etc

csvmark@jarthur.claremont.edu (Mark R. Anderson) (01/11/90)

We are running a AlisaShare file server on a VAX/VMS system.  The other
day I watch the painful process of someone ftp'ing a mac file from
remote site, kermiting it to the mac, and doing the necessary backflips
to unpack it.

Since all the files are ultimately stored on the VAX anyway, I was wondering
if:
	a) Someone with Alisashare has already written a VMS stuffit, packit.
		or
	b) Someone has the LZW code to uncompress files.
		or
	c) any suggestions that will help me implement such a scheme.

Thanks,
