I reuested a new directory from the SIMTEL server and apparently the
ARC that I have is not up to the job of unpacking it. I get the message
"try a newer version of ARC" or something to that effect. Could someone
either E-mail me a new ARC or give me the directory and filename on SIMTEL.
Thanks,
Mat

Look in the directory PD1:<MSDOS.STARTER>. It has a whole bevy of plain executables to play with, including PK361.EXE (self-extracting PKPAK and PKUNPAK, I believe). -- Mike Castle (Nexus) S087891@UMRVMA.UMR.EDU (preferred) | ERROR: Invalid mcastle@mcs213k.cs.umr.edu (unix mail-YEACH!)| command 'HELP' Life is like a clock: You can work constantly, and be right | try 'HELP' all the time, or not work at all, and be right twice a day. |
