Problem: what about us poor people who have to download a file over 
low-baud phone lines before it can be unsqueezed or LDIR'd?  I think
we need, now more than ever, some sort of catalog to the actual file
contents on SIMTEL20, in order to keep people from having to waste
two hours and a disk to find out that there really isn't anything 
worthwhile in some mammoth .LBR or .LQR file that looks interesting
from the outside.

At least keep the .HLP and .DOC files in unsqueezed ASCII.  (Please)
