   As currently stands, no. The programmer of GS Shrink-It, Andy
Nicholas, is at Apple Computer Co., working on the latest Finder
and System X.Y.Z. (The numbers are classified until the marketing
department can have fun with them :)  The latest GSHK is more than
2 years old, and will probably never be updated by Andy Nicholas.

   If someone could get the specs for the latest StuffIt/Stuffem
Deluxe/Compact Pro, it might be possible to make a GS version. As
these programs are rather copyrighted and published, it's unlikely
that anyone could get such info. Please try, though.
