This is really neat!  I've freed up about 200 blocks on my boot disk
without hardly trying.  I have one technical question I hope someone can
answer.

Will packed files be less likely to load if memory is fragmented?  That is,
does PP work by loading one big hunk, and then unpacking it into the
original lots of little hunks?  Or what?
