Hello, hope all is well on this fine Saturday and looking forward to seeing some people in Paignton LUG this afternoon :) I had a client send me a .rar compressed file yesterday and I had to download some additional software to uncompress it. I started looking online to see if .rar was non-free so that I could warn the client against it in future but couldn't find anything to say it wasn't. I remember something called winrar in the past which I would certainly know wasn't free - but I don't know if the format is or isn't. So obviously couldn't warn the client, and promote tar instead. Can anyone clear this little confusion up? Thanks in advance Joe -- The Mailing List for the Devon & Cornwall LUG http://mailman.dclug.org.uk/listinfo/list FAQ: http://www.dcglug.org.uk/listfaq
