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?
