Compress fro the PC is ONLY for TEXT files! Everytime I compress a file on my PC with any of these it stops at the same place a file listing would stop if you executed a type command on the binary file. So has anyone modified the code since my last try? I would imagine all it would take is to treat all files as a binary file. -- To live is to die, to die is to live forever; GRegg Thompson Where will you spend eternity? greggt@vax1.cc.uakron.edu
