: Well, I can't find it. Why the hell do they even use these crazy compressors that are hard to find??? Could you please send it to, gavp@gis.net

: Thank you.

I know what you mean - I had a hard time finding GShrinkit in a useable format. Basically, If you don't have an archiver then it's a bit difficult to use SHRINKIT to unpack a SHRINKIT archive. So the default format is distributed in BSC (BinSCII) for convenience.

I was looking around my disk box and I found a copy of GSHK in SEA (Self Extracting Foramt) for GSOS (System 5 or higher). This is a format not unlike that found on the Mac - you simply execute it on the desktop. Make sure it's transferred as a binary file.

I have E-mailed you a copy of GSHK.SEA
