PE> Sorry, what you need is infozipp.zip which is the OS/2 version.



Yep, thanks, infozip works fine. The only problem is that it records full
path names, so when it extracts the packets they went into directory
\SQUISH\BINKLEY\OUTBOUND.SQ instead of \BINKLEY\FILE so Squish couldn't
find them. I have put the -J (ignore directories) option on the unzip for
tomorrow to see if it fixes it. You may also want to use -J on the when you
zip.

Does -9 help much? I guess every bit helps, especially for STD callers.

We'll see how portable their code really is! Remember, don't send me the
486 version as it probably won't run on a 386.

No, I was out all day Saturday. Maybe you should make the default attributes hold.
