PKARC/PKXARC are (almost) unique to the IBM PC.  ARC 5.12 is the latest rev
as far as packing formats, but ARC 5.20 (on PCs) could create self-unpacking
archives (a .exe file that unarced itself).
     I have done enough porting to have created a simple unarc which handled
squashed files (PKARCed - using 14 bit LZ without repeat packing) for the ST.
But PKXarc runs under PC Ditto, so you can use that as well.
