I vote for ZOO and uuencode/uudecode. I have both ZOO and BOOZ working on AT&T UNIX V r3.1 and r2.0 as well as my PC. I we must change, SIMTEL20's archive is mostly .arc's. There are BSD and AT&T PD versions of ARC on SIMTEL. FYI, I have used the Beta version of ZOO to backup my HD and then restore after an M*DOS upgrade. Try that using *BACK. Also the ability to spec the size of the archive is a neat feature. It prompts for a new floppy when it needs one. Would be nice if it had the speed and compression ratios of PKZIP. Could be the nicest feature is that it doesn't cost me $$$ every few months to assure that I can unpack the latest. Change is nice but must it be a constant? Bob Rager
