Roger, All of the unpacking programs are in Library 16 of AmigaUser. Apparently, ARCHLP is getting a little old and may need to be updated a bit. What it says is true, and the programs it describes work, but almost everything in our libraries now need to be unpacked with LHA138.RUN from Library 16 of AmigaUser. It can unpack files whose names end in either .LZH or .LHA, which is nearly all of our files uploaded in the last year or two. LHA138.RUN is a self-dissolving archive. If you download it to DF0:, for instance, once you are offline, just type: cd df0: lha138.run and it will unpack itself, giving you several files. One will be the documentation, which you need to read. Another will be LHA, which you should copy to either your C: or Tools: directory. After that, it should be ready for immediate use whenever you need it. If you have files with names ending in .ZIP, I would suggest UNZIP.LHA from Library 16 of AmigaUser. You will need to unpack it with LHA from LHA138.RUN, described above. —Betty
