I've problems with the recently-posted ARCed posters in rec.arts.startrek.
It seems my (SYSV) ARC program can only handle 12 bit compression and the
posters used 20 bit. I tried changing the BITS definition in the code
from 12 to 20 but it didn't work. I don't know (and really don't want to
know) enough about data compression to know why.

Is there a System V-compatible ARC program that will do 20 bit compression?
Or, is there a compression expert out there that would be interested in
helping me solve tis problem?
