If you want to unpack files packed by a proprietory tool I guess you'd
be best finding a way to call it or something similar from APL.
If you want to pack and unpack stuff yourself within APL using LZW
because you know it's good then John Scholes has one in the Dyalog
supplied ws "dfns" under the name of packZ with extensive notes.
