Word to the wise ... the XOPER.STARTUP file provided in the archive will
cause a system hang if you use XOPER -b either in the startup-sequence
or in CLI. I found this out the hard way last night. Delete the
XOPER.STARTUP file provided and write your own. The following is a good
starting point and allows you to call the program anytime with LEFT
AMIGA/RIGHT AMIGA/X. 

WINDOW 120 12 520 100
ICONIFYOFF

Also, the program will load, but will not run if your XOPER.STARTUP file
contains illegal WINDOW values. Only way out of it is to reboot.
Otherwise, this is a nice V2 implementation.

P.S.  Also added to NORSE""::AMIGA:[UPLOAD]    ....   ZIP.ZOO

This implementation of ZIP for the Amiga by PKWARE is nearly complete.
It will not compress a file yet, and will not handle files compressed
with the latest IBM implementation. But, the user interface is worth
exploring. V1 should be available RSN.

    I unshared, uudecoded, cvtarced, and zoo tested (whew..) all the stuff
    that came over the usenet on the weekend. They have been copied to
    TAPE::user2:[upload], NORSE::amiga[upload] and CGOU01::amiga:[new]. The
    following is what is there:
    

	ASH.ZOO;2 		New Unix like shell.
	CLOCKDJ.ZOO;2  		Version 207 of clockdj mouse acc. etc.
    	CM.ZOO;2		John Guineau's Celestial Mech   
    	DEVKIT.ZOO;2      	Arexx/C Developers Kit
    	GRAPH.ZOO;2  		Graph Package
    	HP11.ZOO;2     		Latest HP11 Calculator
    	ZHOW.ZOO;2  		New Picture Show utility
     
    They are all Stream_LF (Xmodem transfer) for all you guys who haven't
    been able to get converted to Zmodem.
