LZH is not included in the EOU distribution. I could swear I have a copy of
it somewhere, but I can't find it. I looked in the color computer archive,
and there doesn't appear to be any OS-9 utilities that I can find. I think
we need to make an OS-9 category in the archive specifically for OS-9
software. At any rate, I will keep looking to see if I can find the copy of
lzh that I know I used to have.
