That's right, Stuffit (the app) supports all kinds of archive formats. There
was even talk of supporting NuFX at one time but looks like that idea fizzled.
I personally only use Stuffit format, mainly because I almost never try to use
Mac files on anything else. And of course I use Shrinkit on Apple IIs.

If you're talking about rearchiving something, why use anything other than
Shrinkit?

The point is Nathan is a jerkwad, but then that has been manifestly obvious

Nah, the only people having any problems like that are Apple haters who 
wouldn't go for that.
