	ARC will create and manipulate files that can be used on an IBM PC;
there is no compatibility problem (small caveat -- there may be some ARC
files that have been compressed in a non-standard form called 'squashing',
popularized by Phil Katz's PKARC variant of the SEA ARC program, but there
are variants of ARC that run on the ST that will handle these files as well.

	You can store either binary or ASCII files for any type of computer
on the Atari.  As long as you treat all the files involved as BINARY files,
you won't have any problems handling EBCDIC files on an Atari.  You are much
more likely to have trouble on the Flintstones-era VM machine, but if you are
careful you should be OK.  I know that my company keeps its PC BINARY archives
on a VM machine.

Good luck.
