You can get uncompress/compress from simtel20.army.mil or wuarchive.wustl.edu
in  pd1:<msdos.sq-usq> or mirrors/msdos/sq-usq  in the file  comp430.zip

tar is available in one of the following (I'm not sure of the directory):

pd1:<msdos.fileutl> .fil-utl .filutl .sysutl .sys-utl .arc-lbr

etc etc  etc.

You might also want to get pd1:<msdos.filedocs> simibm.idx or simibm.arc.  It
contains a comma delimited list of all the files on simtel, and is updated 
almost daily.  There are also several programs in the same directory to help
read this list.

There is also a pd1:<msdos.gnuish> directory that has a lot of gnu stuff 
ported to dos in it.

Also, DJ Delorie has ported GCC to DOS (_REQUIRE_ a 386+ to run).  Available
on grape.ecs.clarkson.edu in pub/msdos/djgcc.

Mike
