Greetings:
I've downloaded the Fluid soundfont but am unsure how to unarchive it.
The file in question is named "FluidR3 GM.sfArk" which implies some sort
of archived filetype I don't know about. Can someone tell me what
utility I'll need to unarc it ? TIA !

I had no idea, but tried Google with "sfark", and it showed, as you
suspected, it is a soundfont archive. The results also had links to
Windows and Mac decompressors, but coulnd't (quickly) find anything for
Linux.

"Decompress-only versions of sfArk are soon to be released
for both Linux and Mac. Full versions (i.e. including compression)
may be made available if there is sufficient demand."
I am not sure how promising that sounds...

Hi Maarten:
Well, I put in my two pesos and added my opinion on their page. I'll
download the 'doxe version and try it under WINE. :)

Thanks, Frank, I'll give it a try. sfArk didn't work under WINE, too
bad.

I remember, that some months ago the same question came up over on the
muse list and there, some nice sould did unpack it and put it on his
web or ftpsite. Maybe if you check the archives, you find something.
