There is still a lot of arhcival stuff zips - cp/m dos and dusty old programs
off the web. The problem is not finding the stuff is finding the archive
program used to get all the dusty old files back. The problem with the linux
unzip program is the runtime libraries changed (newer version) and I could not
run the old program as something had changed.
