BOY could I use a compatible PC-DOS [un]compress or tar facility. Why
oh why can't kermit compress things automatically? :-)

I have the sources to compress but I imagine porting it is non-trivial
(it looks pretty hairy and machine-dependant?) so I don't want to
undertake this if it has been done.

Actually a UNIX ARC or ZOO would be nice too :-)
