Works OK, doesn't like Illegal file names. GS only.

Runs fine, unzips most things perfectly. IIe/GS. Interface is a little
rough, but you get what you pay for! With Namefix installed, this little
baby will accept illegal names just fine, although it's up to you to
change them to legal ones if you want them to work with most II programs.
Only one problem. I can't seem to PKZIP! The only version I've seen (I
think .81?) will ZIP alright. ONE FILE. If ZIPs one file into a file
called ZIPDFILE.ZIP. There is NO method for placing multiple files in the
archive that I can see! If anyone knows how to do this, PLEASE Email me!
:) Also, if you create a .zip file with this, and you are using ProTerm's
Zmodem. Make sure that you change the file type on the .zip to BINARY, or
it will not work properly on some machines.
