I suggest the LIB files are probably LBR files.  You will need something
like LU or NULU to extract their members.  .?z? files are crunched.  Use
UNCRUNCH on them.  ?q? files are squeezed.  Use USQ on them.  Dunno about
the others.

I don't know about the C128 GCR -> MFM conversion but stay tuned.
Somebody here will tell you.  There is more than one C128 out there.
