My viol teacher, who is pretty much one of those Braille-method Mac users (i.e,. she can feel her way around, but doesn't really know to much), can zip up files, so I'd assume it would be trivial for someone who is able to use Finale. It would also be ridiculous for Mac to continue to ignore the most widely used compression format on the planet. The Apple mouse even has two buttons these days, so I'd expect Macs to be able to handle zip files. > And I > recall something about AOL screwing up files that either are or are > not .ziped, but that may have been fixed long ago. Who in the world uses AOL? I wouldn't send anything to an AOL user, myself, and I'd tell them to get rid of AOL. > When you give specific advice, it might be helpful to specify the > platform you're using. The original correspondent did not specify a platform in asking the question, and it really oughtn't make a difference. -- David W.
