Re: [MacPerl] perl & dropstuff

[Daniel Wittenberg <daniel-wittenberg@atsiowa.com>]

Well, the background is the script I have takes whatever file(s) you
drop on the 
droplet and then adds a .bin (so they can be downloaded over the net)
and then
moved to an ftp directory.  Well, the files are getting bigger now, and
the guy
I'm doing this for wants to compress them to save space.  Now that I
think about it
what might actually work better is to have them zipped so it's easier
for PC
people since there are a couple that might download stuff...does that
make it harder,
or does the same code/theory apply to any program?

Thanks...
Dan
