I have no problem with this except:

  Is there a version of ZOO for unix?  I really hate it when I dload a 400K
  .zoo file to my amiga (via 1200 baud modem) only to discover 1) that it
  contains stuff I don't want, or 2) that the "(FL4m{{i{i"R$``!>0<" on line
  5293 in the .uu file should have been a "(FL48-!@2B"R$``!>0<".

At lease I can unwrap .arc files on my sun...
