I agree that Squashing is a good idea, and that PKARC/PKXARC are good programs. But if Phil Katz is such a great dude, why won't he let us get a compatible arc on unix? He could publish a full description of the new compression technique, and the format of the new arc file. At he very least he could create a unix version himself. That way he could keep all of the profits :-) Just a thought from...
