I don't recall seeing .ark, but about the others:
.?Q?: sQueezed file, get something that will sQueeze/UnsQueeze.
I used to use a program called 'SWEEP'; it's quite nice file/directory
maintainer.
.LBR: Libraries. I had a library utility calles NULU on my CP/M machine.
interface is pretty much like that of SWEEP, I think it's quite
nice/fast to use.
