Actually, there is another method which can also be used: ZIP and UNZIP. Both ZIP and UNZIP's code is free (I have it if you need it).

Or is someone working on creating a ZIP and UNZIP Perl package? ***** Want to unsubscribe from this list? ***** Send mail with body "unsubscribe" to mac-perl-request@iis.ee.ethz.ch
