Subject: Z-80 softcard question???

-> 2)  Of the several disks I obtained with the card, I have a program
-> called 'NULU' which deals with libraries.  I was wondering what the
->   purpose of a library is and how you go about using one.  I have
->   only one '.LBR' file on the disks called 'LUX42.LBR' (on the modem7
->   program disk) and haven't been able to manipulate the data in it to
->   any great extent (other than listing it's members using 'NULU').

 NULU will also allow you to extract the member files. Use the -H 
command to see a listing of the various options available in NULU.

 A library file is simply a method of grouping certain files together 
into one file for transfer or storage. Often the files are also 
compressed in some way as well (squeezed, crunched etc...)
