Good work, Rusty. Thanks for listing the files. You won't have much need for Benchm.txt, though you can read it. It will tell you how fast LHA works in comparison to some other programs. Future.TXT is a file you can also read with MORE or ED. It will tell you what the programmer plans to add to the program in the future. LHA.MAN will be the documentation file. You need to print that out, or else read it online with MORE or with ED. To read it with MORE, you will type, in a CLI: MORE UTIL..DSK:LHA/LHA.MAN or MORE DF0:LHA/LHA.MAN I'm not sure what CONTACT is, but probably another text file to read. LICENSE.MAN is another text file to read as above. and RELEASE NOTES will tell you what is new in this version since the last one before it. So – you can see that it is really necessary that you read only LHA.MAN, in order to learn how to use the program fully. However, I believe you have also downloaded UNZIP.LHA, and you wanted to unpack it. Is it also on UTIL.DSK? In the root directory? Then you can unpack it by typing at the CLI: MAKEDIR UTIL.DSK:UNZIP CD UTIL.DSK.UNZIP lha e UTIL.DSK:UNZIP.LHA and it should unpack itself and you can get a list of the files from it. One should be UNZIP itself, which you copy to the C: directory, and there will be a documentation file, which could say README, xxx.TXT, xxx.MAN, or something of that sort, and you will need to read the instructions. You're coming along, Rusty – almost there, in fact. Feels good when it starts working right, doesn't it? —Betty
