I have ARC but my PC is also etherneted.
  >(Vern Buerg's ARCE is just about as fast, and easier to use than PKARC...)
I thought ARCE was just a quick unarchiver (at least the program I have
called ARCE in only an unarchiver) and has the following command format for
unarcing a file named "file":
    ARCE file
To unarc the same file with pkxarc the command is:
    PKXARC file
        or
    PKXARC *      
to unarc all archives in the current directory. 

What makes ARCE any easier???
