Wow! It is such an old archive format! (circa 1989, man!)

Thanks! I need it to open an archive of Larn...
EDIT: Didn't work. Kept giving me an IO error and saying my disk was full (which it isn't). Oh, well.

Well, that's what happens if the proggie is for old MSDOS and those <2Gb HDDs...
Maybe WINACE or WINRAR can open it. Have you tried?

WinZip can't, WinRar can't, and, anyway, my HDD is >2mB! Or do you mean above?
What's WinAce?

I meant that MSDOS stuff only work in HDDs that measure less than 2 Gb.
Anyhow, if the archive is small enough, you can try and decompress it from and to a diskette.

z00 is a broken zipfile. There will be .zip, .z01, .z02 etc. U need all the zips to complete the archive
