+ Well, the probelm is , i always can't  bring the large files back to 
+ school's MAC since i can only use PKZIP or ARJ to compress them on PC.
+ Also, the DD files is totally helpless on my PC.

Couple of ways to do this:

1. There exist Mac programs that understand PKZIP formats (but not ARJ).
   Zip-it (shareware) and Stuffit Expander [I *think* it needs the DropStuff
   shareware add-on to handle PKZIP].

2. There's an UNSIT.EXE for the PeeCee, and yes it unstuffs Stuffit files.
   I'm unaware of a Stuffit stuffer, tho. It's free.

3. Use an alternate compression program. GNU's gzip exists for the Mac,
   and I would be shocked if it didn't exist for the PeeCee.

James - great gravy, you sure did crosspost this all over the place!
