hi, i'm new.
i resume my 128 after 10 year.
i ask if anyone know how i can open file .arc .sfx .lhz .lnx ecc. and i transfer to my c128.
excuse for my bad english.
thank for answer.
The .SFX are self-extracting programs. Just LOAD and RUN with your Commodore (or emulator like VICE) to uncompress the file. These may also be called .SDA (self-disolving archive).
For .ARC, .LZH, .LNX, look here (http://www.commodore128.org/down1.html) for programs that run in C128 mode.
Some archives files can be decompressed with CP/M programs. My favorite is UNARJ. A list of these are available at zimmers (http://www.zimmers.net/anonftp/pub/cpm/archivers/index.html). To use these programs on C128 CP/M, I recommend ctools (http://www.zimmers.net/anonftp/pub/cbm/crossplatform/converters/unix/ctools04.zip). It runs in a DOS box and lets you add files to a .D64 disk image which can be used with CP/M.
To transfer to your C128 there are several methods. If you have a 1571 or 1581 disk drive, you can use Little Red Reader, available here (http://landover.no-ip.com/files/diskfile/LRR270.SFX), to transfer files on an IBM/MS PC floppy disk.
I have not tried it myself, but you can also get an X1541 cable and use software on the PC such as Star Commander or 64HDD.
thank you very much...
