Is there any special items to grab for it as CB> in the range of external proprietry bug fixes??? don't know anything about that, but afaik there is nothing special to regard. simply grab the latest archive, unpack it and use the new exes. oh, there is something: arj 2.55b is now able to create archives with long filenames (windows 95). at some point these archives are not downwards-compatible anymore (if packed with long filenames).

LW> Btw, why don't you try and find out yourself ? :-) I already have ARJ 2.50; I was just trying to find out if it was worth downloading the "A" file, ie how serious the bug was. :) ARJ has many features, but I need compression most of all, which is why Rar is what I usually use. However, Arj was the first non-PKZip archiver I used, which is why I have a soft spot for it, and why I'm in here. ;) Paul --- FMail 1.02 * Origin: The small island just above France.
