wait a minute...don't these people plan to try and SELL at least some of this
code? if so, why on earth are they posting it in a format that only (as far
as i can tell) people with an ibm pc AND pkarc can extract? or has a version
of pkarc surfaced for the ST? sounds pretty silly. comp.binaries.ibm.pc
is trying to force everyone to use pkarc which, i guess, is ok if everyone
has it (which they don't). i hope the atari.st binaries/source groups don't
attemp to do this until any new arc format is VERY common.
