Yes. It's called StuffIt SpaceSaver. Just use the control panel to pick a file name or label (if running System 7) criterion to designate files to "Never compress", then name or label your hard disk accordingly. All SS'd files are expanded automatically. If StuffIt SpaceSaver is disabled for some reason, all compressed files will show up with StuffIt icons; current versions of StuffIt Lite or Deluxe will expand them automatically if they are double-clicked in the Finder. If SpaceSaver is purchased along with StuffIt Deluxe 3.0, or the 3.0 upgrade, the latest version of Magic Menu has menu options that can expand SpaceSaver files or tell you how many SS-compressed files exist on a particular volume. >If there isn't, then I guess I'll have to run Spacesaver, for ever Nope. SpaceSaver is simple to install or "de-install". -- -- Bill Johnston (johnston@me.udel.edu) -- 38 Chambers Street; Newark, DE 19711; (302)368-1949
