Hi Smithy,

	To unarchive (and archive) .lha files, download (from ab20) and use
the file LZ192.  It unarchives .lzh, .lha, and .arc files.  The -2 option when
you archive using it, gives you the .lha file.  My understanding is that it
compresses better than any of the other archivers (at this time).

Subject: How do I unzoo a file to another drive?
Organization: National Instruments, Austin, TX

Date: Wed, 8 Apr 1992 15:19:01 GMT

 I was wondering how to send the extracted zoo files to another drive while they are being extracted.  For example if I have all of my .zoo files in ram and I want the extracted files to go to df1: instead of putting the extracted files
in ram.  I havent figured out how to do this so I always run out of memory sinceram(or a disk) has to hold both the extracted file and the .zoo(unextracted) 
file.  I know on lharc I just type  lharc x filename.lhz df1: but how do I do
this for zoo.  I looked at the zoo help file but still dont understand.

Any help would be appreciated.

Simple. Set the backdrop on or off, and then do a snapshot immediately.
I think this is in the manual somewhere.

Subject: Help me decide on an Amiga system

Organization: Living in a satellite fantasy, waiting for the night to end.
Distribution: na

I'm about to make the mistake of going into debt to upgrade to a new
system. So far I'm pretty well-set on an Amiga bundle, but I don't know
what's out there and the discussions I've had with the dealer around here
haven't been much help. 

Here's what I'm going to be using the machine for, in rough order of
importance to me:

	The Job			What I need for it
	----------------------	-----------------------------------------
	Telecommunications	Something with Zmodem support at least.
	Software development	A robust ANSI-compliant C package.
	Writing			The ability to handle large (~500k)
				plaintext files.  I don't care about WYSIWYG.
				If there's a package out there that's
				optimized for screenplays, I'd like to
				know about it.
	Database maintenance	I'd like to build an exhaustive online
				database of my record collection.
	News + email		Something as simple as possible to set
				up and maintain -- I don't want to have
				to make a career of keeping it working.

The system I checked out was the 2000-HD bundle (2000/16/50, 1080) that
was (*was*) on sale through the 31st.  Unfortunately I found out about it
a little too late to get the money together.

So can someone let me know what kind of package would meet my needs?  What
kind of cash am I going to have to shell out for it, taking both the
hardware and the software into consideration?  And is there an educator's
purchasing plan for Amigas?  (I thought that there was but the dealer didn't
know anything about it.)

Please email and I'll summarize what useful info I get.

Hello Geoffrey and others!

A few weeks ago I testet some Amiga-Packers on a "normal" A2000 B.
Here are my results of their effectivity and the crunching-time:

                (Switches)   Lenght  Effect. Time

(File unpacked)              298320   0.00%  [00:00]

PPacker 3.0                  159036  46.69%  [04:53]
Lharc    -lh1-               151562  49.19%  [05:19]
LZ 1.92  -lh1-  (-0)         148000  50.39%  [02:14]
Lha1.20  -lh5-               146386  50.93%  [03:40]
Lha1.11  -lh5-               146374  50.93%  [03:59]
LZ 1.92  -lh5-  (-2)         146329  50.95%  [02:59]
Lha1.20  -lh5-  (-v0 -Qh64)  146195  50.99%  [03:53]
Lha1.11  -lh5-  (-v0 -Qh64)  146190  51.00%  [04:22]
Impl 3.1        (Mode 8)     139516  53.23%  [29:59]


But the effectivity dependes very much on the crunched file (text,
sound, graphics... ) as well as the crunching-time is depending
on the memory available.

For this reason sometimes LZ is more efficient and sometimes Lha.
But in case of speed (especially at decrunching) mostly Lha is the
fastest one.


Yours,
        Wolfram

  Okidata 192 and 193 printers come in two versions. The local university
 has the Okidata 192+ (IBM) version and I use the [CBM-MPS 1000] driver
 for it. Sorry, but I wouldn't know what to use with a Okidata printer
 that uses a different emulation. { And yes, the 193+ was also an (IBM)
 style. } At 5:28 AM, I'm seldom this coherent.

	On the other hand, if you can't even afford $50, you can get
version 3.04 of Lattice/SAS C in the public domain, which comes with all
the 1.3 Include files and no registration fee at all. Admittedly, you
don't get any fancy editors with it, but what the hell - when you've
been using UNIX's 'vi' as long as I have, you can edit on anything :-)
On my 1Mb machine, there's about 300k of space left for source code in
RAM if you organise yourself properly, but of course you can compile
much larger sources from/to disk.

	Having said all this, I don't know if it's available in the US
public domain ... if not, I can give you the address of a supplier over
here.

  Put zoo in ram:

  then cd to the drive that you want the files on.

  Let's say you want the files on df1:

  cd df1:
  ram:zoo e// df0:blahblah.zoo

  it'll then extract it to df1: since you are sitting
  on df1: already.

	I have downloaded some amiga files from a ftp site; their file-names
have a ".lzh" suffix. Which archiver program do I use to unpack them ?

	Thanks in anticipation of your kind help.

   df1: bad is normal. Because its an ms-dos disk, not Amigados. You are
 using one drive for two different operating systems. MSH 1.3 is the
 correct version. If you are using MSH 1.5, get rid of it ! Of course,
 the mountlist name for the drive and the Mount MS1: must be the same.
 I call mine B: and I use the ARP v1.3 mount command. You will probably
 have better luck with v1.3 ROMs. I have never run MSH with v1.2, but
 it works fine on an A1000 with 512 Kbs and an external floppy without
 workbench running. On my A500 with 1/2 meg CHIP and 4 megs fast,
 it works fine with workbench and two external floppies running. Along
 with Directory Opus, etc. etc.

    Wow, good compression routine....:)

Really?  And I thought, it was Sanskrit. ;)
By the way:  Several people used the acronym NPC in conjunction
with role playing games like Ultima 6 and Eye of the Beholder.
For what does it stand?
