   no, that's not a patcher... that's another decompressor... the kennedy   
   software patcher is the one i was thinking of... there's more than one known   
   as patchcrt and that's why i was confused...

   yup... i have pklite, lzexe and unp here... i've gotten to where i use unp for   
   unpacking most all DOS executables... once i get them unpacked and patched, i   
   save them so that i hopefully don't have to do it again... if systems i host   
   need them, it is easy enough to transfer them over as long as i can find   
   them...
