The below file is the README included with the Archive0.7 package, which
I just submitted to sonata.cc.purdue.edu in /pub/next/submissions.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Archive app will show .Z, .tar, .lha, .lzh, and .zip file icons, and  
will launch when one of these is double-clicked from the workspace,  
uncompressing/unarchiving them.  The "Help" from within the app has more
details.

To install, just copy the binary to /NextApps or /LocalApps or ~/Local or  
anywhere in your path, then logout/login.

Only the binary is required, all other files can be removed if desired.

Warning:  I had modified the Makefile and .iconheader files to allow for
more than 3 file extensions for this app.  I asked  
comp.sys.next.programming for a more convenient way of doing this, and got  
no response.  So if you save from the interface builder, you may need to  
modify these files.

The app assumes that the unix utilities compress, lha, tar, zip, and unzip
exist.  If any of these are missing, it will not interfere with the  
programs ability to archive/extract from the other formats.

This is version 0.7, and will only extract from archives.
