DOS Pack and Unpack

[kenneth.s.cobler]

[ Does pack/unpack exist for DOS ? ]

Yes, in a package called "MKS Toolkit" are the pack and unpack commands.
MKS toolkit is a package that makes your DOS computer emulate Unix.  You
still are running DOS, but, MKS toolkit gives you ksh (with command
history), login prompt, and many other unix commands.  I've found
no problems packing/unpacking and cpio/uncpio files between a Unix PC
and a DOS computer running MKS toolkit.  The package is worth it for all
the unix commands (rm, mv, cp, lf, etc.) even if you don't use the ksh
command interpretter.
