I was thinking: doesn't ShrinkIt uses LZW, also? Does anyone know what, if anything, is the legal position of ShrinkIt? (In theory, this isn't a problem, because we can just use something unpatented, like gzip's compression, or LZH, or whatnot, but in practice it would be a nightmare with incompatible versions of NuFX floating around.) -- Bryan K.
