i'll have to look and see what i have and where i hid the archives...

my zip archivers are from infozip... IIRC, they come separate as they are two
different projects... the ones used over here are in separate directories when
i use "which" to find which one is called by default...


Zip 2.0.1 (Sept 18th 1993)
UnZip 5.12 of 28 August 1994, by Info-ZIP.  Portions (c) 1989 by S. H. Smith.


Compress:
ZIP   zip.exe -k9 -D -j -@                                    <   30
LZH   lh32.exe a /i /o                                            25
RAR   rarp.exe a -s -ep1 -y -c- -ee -std -md64                @   35
ARC   arc.exe a                                               @   18

Decompress:
     ARC arc.exe ewo                                             0
   PKZip unzip.exe -C -s -j -o                                   5
   LHarc lh32.exe x /i /o                                        0
     RAR rarp.exe e -y -std                                      0


it should be noted, though, that on my system i extract all mail from the
bundles using spaz on the DOS side before FE gets to it... my FE hasn't
unarchived any mail in at least a decade if it has unarchived any at all... if
it did, it was only one or two bundles... within the last couple of years, i've
switched pretty much everyone to raw PKTs and have only one or two systems that
send bundles...
