It has a program called zipsplit. Unfortunately I can't find all the docs, but it is available at: ftp://ftp.cdrom.com/pub/infozip/ The only doc I have (dated 31/5/97) says: What is (still!) not added is multi-part archive support (a.k.a. "diskette spanning") and a unified and more powerful DLL interface. These are the two highest priorities for the 6.x releases. Work on the former is almost certain to have commenced by the time you read this. This time we mean it! You betcha. :-) It is ported to just about every OS you're likely to come across. > > > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org > with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message > -- FreeBSD - The Power To Serve http://www.freebsd.org My Webpage http://www.users.globalnet.co.uk/~markov _______________________________________________________________ Mark Ovens, CNC Apps Engineer, Radan Computational Ltd.
