   And i'm stumbling in translation again. I do know that it's common to call a   
   file.ZIP or similar an archive. The CP/M tool arc is described as "general   
   archive and file compression utility". Please note the wording "and" which i   
   do understand as two different things.   
      
   Within the goldref documentation the wording "archive" refers to goldeds file   
   distribution files. My understanding of archive is a collection of content for   
   preservation.   
      
   For PKT files usually the other use "compression" applies. I'd like to   
   recommend to follow the areafix command %packer and talk about packed or   
   unpacked PKTs. The keywords pack and unpack can be found within the fidoconfig   
   configuration environment of the husky software suite too.   
      
   Regards
