- Can't say for sure, as I've never used SpaceSaver, but my guess is no (or
- at least, not happily.)
- Since both programs are designed to pass files more or less transparently
- to everything else, best case scenario would be that one would be
- constantly expanding stuff when the other one scans to compress. Of
- course, they might actually be aware of each other... More likely,
- though, is just nastiness, as they are both patching some fairly
- low-level disk stuff and are likely to conflict...
