Dan, Stacker is faster and compresses better than DOS 6.0 DBLSPACE program. I
suggest waiting for the new Stacker 3.1 as it will be more invisible to the
user. Apparently you are not much into reading README files on your disks
because it tells you about MSCDEX. The older version of MSCDEX works under DOS
5.0 if you run SETVER to tell DOS to return the DOS 3.1 version number to
MSCDEX. You can also D/L a copy of MSCDEX from the MSL forum and several other
forums on CIS that is DOS 5.0 compatible without running SETVER. Unfortunately
DOS 6.0 does not allow you to call the compressed drive by another name. It
seems silly to give up a good program because you have to change some drive
letters in your autoexec.bat file.
Good luck!
Bruce
