A number of years ago I bought this program to compress data and/or programs a directory at a time. This was before I knew about PKware. Anyhow, I used this thing a lot because it was so easy. I used it to compress data on my D-F drives (DOS 3.3) just before I took the last backup on them and then lost my C drive. How I will explain to
anyone who wants to know about the frustration one can run into hooking up a CD-ROM
unit.
For some reason, I cannot lay my hands on the original disk from Parsons either. I called them last week and they claim to have discontinued the product.
Does anyone out there have a copy they could lend me or does anyone know if it is a clone of some other available software. Yes, if I get nowhere, I should probably
post a complaint somewhere about Parsons failure to keep even archival copies of software they have sold!
This of course is for my computer at home. If anyone can help, I will of course
reimburse shipping and/or send you some new blank disks for your effort. Thanks.
