- I would like to disagree with this, at least partially. There are so many
- different compression formats on the ST that it really *sucks*, a .sea is
- extremely nice because then I don't have to have "X" program or the newest

-

- Well, maybe not, but self-extracting files sure make my life a lot easier.
