	You've missed my meaning.  FileList 1.4 recognizes enough of the
	stuffit and compactor data format to get the list of files in the
	archive.  This is a neat feature, because you can keep your files in
	compressed format and still get a listing of the FILES stored on
	your disks.  I haven't tried FileList 1.4 yet so I may be totally
	off base.  :-)
