I seem to recall an old dos based zip type format, and it REALLY compressed stuff. At least 30% better than .zip or .rar, but the problem was it took a while and wasn't for newbies.
To answer Trigger's question, I can't talk offline (in real life) because as a kid I was in a really bad car accident and my vocal cords were utterly obliterated. They had no chance of healing, so the doctor just took them out. Now I get by with sign language and a chalk and chalkboard (ala Homer simpson) It works fairly well, but not quite up to speaking. All my other senses are fine. I just can't talk. Thanks for asking.
