I am looking for a program to maintain an archive of
files that would otherwise clutter up my HD20. I don't mean
a back-up program, although one with the right features
might be able to fill in if used right. Rather I have in mind 
something like the UNIX TAR facility but with a better
(more Mac-like) way of checking what is in the archive, that
uses floppies as a medium, and that will ask only for needed
floppies (not all) when restoring or adding a file or folder.
Does such a such a program exist?

John
