Recently I tried to dearchive the file gcx123.arc, belonging to
the GNU-C compiler postings. I got the following message from my
arc.ttp:
"I don't know how to handle file COPYING in archive GCX123.ARC
 I think you need a newer version of ARC."
The same thing happened with all the other archieves belonging to
the GNU-C postings I got. The first thing I tried was downloading
a newer version of arc from LISTSERV at CANADA01 (BITNET, as I am
a BITNET user). The file I ordered and received was
PROG-A16 88-00152, described as "ARC.TTP ... (Repost)". It identi-
fies itself as (stuff deleted):

"       System Enhancement Associates
       21 New Street, Wayne NJ 07470

 ARC - Archive utility, 5.12 - Atari ST

 Atari ST version developed by Harvey Johnson "

which is the same as with my old arc. It also did not work, of course.
So what can I do? Is there a newer version of arc available (could
someone mail it to me if so)? Or is something wrong with the file?
Has anybody had the same problems and/or can help?
I would be glad to hear from you, netlanders!
