There is a handy list of text/binary compression utilities available via anonymous ftp from ux1.cso.uiuc.edu (128.174.5.59) in the directory doc/pcnet as the file compression (though another file there, compression.new, was more recent). It is maintained by David Lemson (lemson@uiuc.edu). The list also covers various binary<->text conversion utilities (uuencode, binhex, etc.). ftp sites are listed, and many come with source, which is what would be of particular interest to readers of this newsgroup.
