Well…I've tried using the Amiga File Finder, but there seems to be no record of PowerPacker being *anywhere* in the Amiga sections. It showed me programs that were compressed USING PowerPacker, but not the actual PowerPacker program itself. Just where the devil *is* the damned thing?! <Dave>

David, If it hasn't been accessed in any given 90 day period it was more than likely purged from the libraries.

Power Packer is a comercial program its not available on here. IF a program was powerpacked you dont need to un-powerpack it. Just run it like you normally would. Power PAcker takes executable programs and compresses them down into smaller executable programs. It also works great with text and pic-ture files. Nick

Nick, Earlier versions of PowerPacker were either pd or shareware (I forget which). -sja

Oh yeah, I forgot about that. I think the latest is Power Packer 3.1 and its commercial. Forgot about those shareware versions. Nick
