Bert,

If you don't have them already, grab ar68.bin in LIB 9 for the *.ar files, and
lha201.bin in LIB 12 for the *.lzh files. Place ar68.bin and lha201.bin in an
execution directory, like /DD/CMDS, rename ar68.bin to ar, and rename
lha201.bin to lha, then set the execution attributes, like this: attr lha ar -e
-pe

Now you should have working versions of ar, to bust up the *.ar archives, and
lha to bust up the *.lzh archives.

C source files for the PC will, in most cases, not be easy to port to OSK. The
simpler the program, the easier the port. Unix C source code is much easier to
port to OSK, and there are a couple of libraries developed to support some of
the Unix functions.

Don't be embarrased about asking questions, that's what we're here for!

        -Bill-
