It's called 'Sausage.' It comes with a quick-n-dirty sausage packer program. It's BETA. That means it works for me and a few others who have tried it. I won't have a lot of time in the coming weeks to give a ton of support for it, but I try to help as much as I can. I'm just sick of downloading games in progress and ending up with hundreds of files, each taking up a minimum of 32k due to my clustersize. So, use and enjoy! There are no known bugs at this time, but I guarantee nothing, holmes. Also, if you modify it, especially to add functionality, please send me the changes so they can be incorporated for all to enjoy. http://brennan.home.ml.org/programming/ Brennan -- brennan AT rt66 DOT com | Against alien abduction?
