Why their morals of course!  Sorry just couldn't resist.  Does the
emergence of JAR sound the end of ARJ?  Just curious, I've never really
seen ARJ take off, much akin to RAR.  What I mean that it has never
really, even though they are much better, invaded the territory that
PKZip has always had; bbs and most ftp sites.  Perhaps if JAR will
offer a faster and much improved file compression the old PKZip 2.04g
will start to go like the older PKZip 1.10 did.
