I know that there's a Yarn/95, but haven't tried it. I'm using the DOS
version, which works just fine. I use and old version of QEdit as my
editor, and the latest version of YES (version 22 I believe) since
there's no DOS version of YEP.

You can use pkzip, but InfoZIP's (is it InfoZIP?) version is a native
Win'95 application that supports LFN. Also, if you're going to switch
to Win'95, I would recommend that you get yourself a copy of 4DOS. I
couldn't live without it! ;-)
