no, that's not a patcher... that's another decompressor... the kennedy
software patcher is the one i was thinking of... there's more than one known
as patchcrt and that's why i was confused...

yup... i have pklite, lzexe and unp here... i've gotten to where i use unp for
unpacking most all DOS executables... once i get them unpacked and patched, i
save them so that i hopefully don't have to do it again... if systems i host
need them, it is easy enough to transfer them over as long as i can find
them...
