Do you know the plus/4-CD? It's a compilation from Marco Polos (our spreader)
archive (complete). Perhaps you find the games (or other programs) you want?
Otherwise I have my own CD included all disks I have with a lot of 49blk-games wich I have swapped in the early 90's. Because all files (in D64) on CD it isn't longer needed to copy it to pc. I can send you one or both CDs, if you want. I have a BBS with a lot programs (over 200 games in moment), but I know that it's a hard work to sort, test it and write some comments. I will create a database with all tips, tricks and informations for all games with Rüdiger Gerdes (Rüdiger/Unlimited). This will be a hard work I think.

I think, this is a good idea. But what is the solution for programs with more files? (gzip?)
Does exist a unpacker for this?
