...I run either Switcher or MultiFinder all the time and (you may not have
noticed yet) StuffIt-1.20 requires a significant larger junk of memory
to run than PackIt, and I often don't have that much memory left lying

only does the unpacking (and which could, therefore, run in 128k or less,
hopefully), I for one would be much happier.
