I was waiting for this reference to appear, since I've been hearing Amiga
users talking about it for so long (i've never even seen an amiga!) and it
seems to be exactly what I'm looking for.

The nitpick? I don't know if I am willing to implement the archiving
library for this format myself. If a library suddenly appears, I will use
it.
