The current version of StuffIt Deluxe, 2.1 works fine. Looking inside the
HyperCard stack, it appears that 2.0 and 2.1 are both "mostly compatible"
or better. StuffIt does BinHex and PackIt, doesn't it?

The current release of the SUM package is 2.1, I think. (The last three are
part of that package, aren't they?)

>After Dark                1.1.     Must upgrade   2.0u   MO  

I have 2.0t and that is acceptable.

>ATM                       1.2      Must upgrade          MO  

ATM 2.0 is much faster than 1.2. Don't upgrade very often, do you? :-)

>Compactor                 1.21     Not avail.                

Compact Pro 1.3 is available from sumex-aim.

>Kermit 0.9(40)            0.9      Not avail.                

I have 0.98(62), and it seems to work fine. You can get it via anonymous ftp
from watsun.cc.columbia.edu or sumex-aim (maybe).

>Red Ryder 9.4             9.4      Not avail.                

White Knight 11.10 works fine for me.

>  Gatekeeper Aid          1.1      Not avail.            MO  

You can get GateKeeper 1.2 (specifically released to be spiffy and work with
System 7.0) from bongo.cc.utexas.edu, though it may be at sumex-aim by now.
