From   : "Mik Davis" <davism@...>
Subject: Archiver (again!)

  I have started work on a new archiver which will handle all the things
which have been mentioned so far, it will cope with directories and 
wildcard specified source names. The archive will be ASCII format suitable
for distribution in almost any form (that I can think of).
  The de-archiver will be compatable with the files produced by the archiver
I put on shiraz the other day.
  The only problem is that I have used several of the procedures from that
package in the new version but I really need to get in touch with the author to
ask whether this is OK.
  Does anyone know who "S. M. Goldthorpe aka the BeebBasher" is?? - I assume
he is on the net somewhere as his package came from lancs.pdsoft originally
(although this doesn't prove anything!).
