    AI> Hello Alan,   
      
    AB>> So how about other zip suggestions.   
      
    AI> There are so many options to zip stuff. When working at the command line   
    AI> I have been useing Info-Zip's Zip and Unzip since OS/2 many years and now   
    AI> I still use it on linux.   
      
    AI> In a lot of cases PKWare's PKZIP and PKUNZIP is a good option too, a lot   
    AI> of software is pre-configured for it.   
      
    AB>> I am really stuck at the defintion point of the program.   
      
    AI> Archiver command lines can be a real PITA. I don't know what software you   
    AI> are trying to configure but I could share what I use with HPT if it would   
    AI> help.   
      
    AB>> I cannot proceed without them.   
      
    AI> In the FTN world it is possible to just use raw .pkt files between nodes,   
    AI> then no archivers are needed but the Info-Zip and PKWARE products are   
    AI> usually workable in my experience although there may be a road to travel   
    AI> there. :)
