I'm a user of mtools on a sparcstation (mtools 2.0.7 was recently released).

I had an older version of mtools which I got running with shared libraries.  
(Primarily to learn how sun shared libraries worked).

It seems all the mtools programs should be links to one main program, and
all the global declarations need to be segregated into one place...

I also wonder if zip should be included into the gnu distribution (if it can be).

What I want to be able to do is pipe from/to mtools/zip so I can easily
write/read zip files from floppy disks... (without having to make copies
everywhere).
