ARC on NeXT
#2006

Running 2.x, gcc 1.36.

I'm trying to compile the unix version of the archiving program 'arc',
but not having any luck.  I can't seem to find any recent version of
the arc package (that is, since NeXT came out).  

When I finally get it to build (lotsa hard coded extern rindex()), it
keeps getting a bus error.  Before I start delving more into it, I'm
wondering if anyone else has managed to get it to build successfully?

If so, could you please send me patches, or perhaps the binary?

I've looked on some archive sites, and I can find the binary for lharc,
but not for arc.  

Any pointers suggestions would be appreciated.

regards,
mrc

I've found ARC for the NeXT already compiled! 

I'd like to thank scott hess <shess@ssesco.com> for pointing me to the
package Opener (on many ftp sites) that not only has ARC, but ZIP/UNZIP,
LHA, and a few other useful packages.  

I'd also like to thank Michal Jaegermann (ntomczak@vega.math.ualberta.ca)
for offering to mail his binaries to me.  

anyone else who responds, thank you!

happy new year!
