- Does any one know of a compression conversion program that will convert
- to the many different types of archivers around find the smallest and
- leave it in that form. I have found some file compress better with ZIP 2.04
- some are better with LZH 2.13, and some are better with arj 2.3.
- This would be useful for finding the smallest archive type and saving space.
-
- This would be for an MS-DOS system. I ask the same question on the
- compr.compression group and got no major response.
