Re: dar-2.3.0 incompatible with sarab-0.2.2?

David,

I figured this would happen if Dar changed the command-line options.

Anyway, you should all know that there is a replacement for SaraB called bzSaraB.  This project is 
mainly developed by another developer, with some help from me.  He has done a great job of cleaning 
up the code, and added new features.

You can learn all about this great new software at http://bzsarab.sf.net/
