ShrinkIt is an Apple II utility program for archiving files and disks. 
Archiving refers to the process of placing files or disks "within" 
another file -- the archive file. Shrinkit is the standard archiving 
format for Apple II programs. All uploads on this page, except for those 
in Text file format , are packed in Shrinkit. To handle the�age-old 
question, "How do I get Shrinkit if I don't already have Shrinkit?" we 
have a self-extracting download which you make into the�Shrinkit program 
+�docs using AppleSoft BASIC. 

For more information about using Shrinkit, read the Apple II FAQS at:
 
http://home.swbell.net/rubywand/Csa2FLUTILS.html 



Download Shrink.exe �Shrinkit in a self-extracting, executable text 
file. 
Download, (transfer to your Apple II if necessary,) get into AppleSoft 
BASIC (run BASIC.SYSTEM), and type -SHRINK.EXE (that's a dash, then the 
file name). Be sure to set the PREFIX first to the location of the 
downloaded Shrink.exe file. For example, 

] PREFIX /HD1
] -SHRINK.EXE 

Shrinkit will self-extract, along with a documentation file. You can 
then use Shrinkit v3.4 to unpack any of the downloads on this site - 
except those in Text file format, which can be read or downloaded 
directly.
