Ok folks, here's the question...

I just bought a used 520ST (I love it!) and get most of my software
from the net!  (Usually terminator!)  Downloading a 400K file just
to de-arc it so I can read the docs is a pain...

My solution put the arc.ttp program in my Unix machine.  If someone
has already translated Atari "arc" to Unix usable, PLEASE let me
know!  If not, I would like source code for arc so that my partner &
I can make whatever modifications to allow it to run on Unix...

THis would save me (& probably lots of others) the hours of downloading
files that we can't use.  (The best example I have is I downloaded
a 200K program that only works on Mono monitors.  Of course, I have
a color AND I had to download before I could read about this!

If this type of program would be useful to anyone OR already exists,
let me know.
