I have posted (or actually will in about 5 minutes) to comp.sources.mac the sources for an MPW tool to do unix-compatible compression/decompression. You need MPW both to compile and to use this program. Included in the sources is a library that should make it very simple to add compression/decompression to just about any program which writes/reads files sequentially. Maybe somebody can take this library and wrap a stand-alone user interface around it. Since I have MPW, I can't quite get motivated to do that... -- gz@entity.com ...!mit-eddie!spt!gz Now let's all repeat the non-conformist oath.

I am posting this as a followup, because I tried mail, and it bounced.
To Gail Zacharias (gz AT spt.entity.com):
The MPW uncompress utility hasn't arrived on our comp.source.mac yet, and
I could really use this. Would it be possible to email this, or for me to
send a disk? (I hope your mailer doesn't bounce the reply!)
