Rich, >I am still wondering why the decompressing program – LHA – gives me a RAM: full error when I try to decomp' the A64 program. I suspect you are simply running out of memory. That is the limitation with the RAM: device; it can only get as large as the memory that is free will allow. >Again, I must have the original Arc'd version _and_ try to decompress it in RAM, unless? Maybe you know of a way to decompress the ARC'd version that resides in RAM: to decompress to my disk drive. (Keep in mind I have only my internal 3.5") ?? I seem to remember that there is some way to redirect arc to decompress to somewhere other than where the file is, but it's been so long since I've used that program (or any decompression program) through the shell/cli that I just don't remember. Hopefully someone else will see this and chime in. Skimming through the Redwoods on AutoPilot Asha
