Actually, this is one case where moving up to StuffIt 5 - at least after
they ship the updated Expander/Windows - will be a BIG win! The changes in
the new file format (in addition to the improved compression) are
SPECIFICALLY FOR cross-platform compatibility. StuffIt 5 files are designed
to maintain and transfer data between MacOS and Windows.
