Other PC Tools 6.0 software seems to work >ok though (including COMPRESS). In DOS 5.0, MIRROR.COM, FORMAT.EXE, and UNDELETE.EXE are licensed from PCTOOLS and should probably supercede the PCTOOLS 6.0 ones and use the DOS ones instead. (Me too would like to know about PCTOOLS 7.0). The same goes for RAMDRIVE.SYS, SMARTDRV.SYS, and HIMEM.SYS which supercede the equivalent ones in Windows 3.0.
