Yep. That's still the public release version. I realise that I haven't
been keeping it up-to-date. The ftp server belongs to the University's
IT Services Dept, and although I have a lot of privileges there, it's
still a bit messy keeping it current. I have added radkfile to its
daily updater, so it should stay in step with the version used by WWWJDIC.

That's got the  base kradfile too, from which radkfile is built. I thought
you might be interested.

I use .zip a lot. Yes, .tar.gz or .tgz is more unixy, but I often find .zip
more convenient.
