If you are using PKARC, you might give some serious
consideration to going back to the Standard ARC. I talked
with Thom Henderson today of S E A who authored ARC and they
are getting complaints about PKARC not being system
compatable (backwards) with ARC. PKARC is in violation of
S E A's copywrite. Also the authors of PKARC won't release
the code so that it can be ported to other systems, (CPM,
*NIX, etc.)
The *occasional* 1-3% savings in compression is hardly
worth the problems caused by incompability.
