I don't believe so. DJ Delorie's DJGPP build of p7zip is the only one I'm aware of for DOS > I am not using freedos, but ms dos 7.1 will it make a difference? It shouldn't. FreeDOS does its best to be MS-DOS compatible. An open source OS that *is* MS-DOS compatible is the point odf developing FreeDOS to begin with. > I had to laugh as the pzip package requires bz2 for the unzipping, which > is something pzip does. I prefer to just make a 7z archive, instead of a bz2'd tar file. The latter requires you to uncompress the tar file then extract it. What if you just want one file in the archive? And 7z archives made with max compression are comparable in size to bz2 files. > Thanks, > Karen ______ Dennis https://plus.google.com/u/0/105128793974319004519 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Learn the latest--Visual Studio 2012, SharePoint 2013, SQL 2012, more!
