Perhaps you are not aware of the new .zip built into the core of OS X, select a file, go to the finder menu and select "create archive". So it is already there, no need for 10.4. It stored meta data in a separate file in the archive so files can be sent to a PC and back to the mac and not lose file type and creator etc info. Perhaps some symblinking to a particular file where E-rage things the stuff it engine is would work. -- ------------------------------------------------------------- Scott Haneda Tel: 415.898.2602 http://www.newgeo.com Fax: 313.557.5052 [EMAIL PROTECTED] Novato, CA U.S.A. -- To unsubscribe: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> archives: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.letterrip.com/> old-archive: <http://www.mail-archive.com/entourage-talk%40lists.boingo.com/>
