Wow.. I was able to run ShrinkIt from the floppy disk.. For some
reason, though, it didn't want to install on the hard drive, so I had
to run it from the floppy.  I got the TANK game to run.. man am I
rusty..

One thing with ShrinkIt that's annoying, though..  it seems that in
order to extract (say) 10 files from an archive, you have to manually
select and extract each file individually.. Is that right?  Or did I
miss something.. I would imagine that you should be able to extract an
entire archive at once..

Thanks,
