But have you seen ZOO? I don't have the specs handy to demonstrate, but it is
comparable in speed to PK, the author is porting it to *lots* of operating
systems, and it has one VERY useful feature over ARC and clones: you can add
a comment line for each file in the archive. ZOO is purely public domain, and
the source code (in C, of course :-) is going to also be released (and with-
out any 'macro' language embedded in it that you have to pay $100 to get an
interpretor for).
You can get ZOO (and probably PK - idunno, haven't checked lately to see if
we have it), from the bbs number in my signature.
