»» Zip2Arj v2.25 -- Matthew Ayres -- 1993 ««
────────────────────────────────────────────────
Hey, what can I say, it changes .ZIP files into .ARJ files. It requires
PKUNZIP.EXE and ARJ.EXE of course. Here is the usage for Zip2Arj:
ZA <ZIP filename>
or ZA -T<tempdir>
When you first recieve this, you will have to use the -T option to specify
the tempdir that will be used during conversion. Here are some examples:
ZA -Tc:\dos
ZA -Tc:\temp
ZA -Te:\
Then you can Zip2Arj any .ZIP file at any time. Here are some examples
for doing that:
ZA myfile.zip
ZA files*.zip
ZA *.zip
I have no guarantees that this will work, but so far, so good. I think
I have worked out most of the bugs. Hope you enjoy using this, I know it
isn't anything special, but it works.
Notes:
-- This works great if you specify your RAM drive as your tempdir
(assuming you use one!) I do that, and it works quite fast that way.
-- Please contact me if you have any comments, know of any bugs, or just
want to talk to me. I'd like to give out my address, but it's gone
around enough and I really don't want everyone to know it. My phone
number is (510) 455-0425. Call me. If we need to talk for any length
of time, I'll happily call you back and take the phone charges.
-- This is FREEWARE, I ask for no money. I'd rather get comments,
suggestions, bugs, etc. Let me know if you think it's great or the
worst thing you've seen.
-- If you live in the Bay Area, you might find my name on a BBS. Feel
free to E-Mail me. My name is Matthew Ayres at every board and my
handle is White Fang if the board supports handles or chat handles.
-- The best way around a lie is through it.
-- Watch out for the Wolf File Manager (WFM), also by me. It's still
in its BETA stages, but I might upload a BETA. It has mouse support,
windows, pull down menus, all the normal copy, move, del, etc. commands.
And recently I added support for Building and Expanding ARC, ARJ, LZH,
and ZIP files.
