They should be OK as is, you only need to edit them in the case of adding
commands to Add, Delete or Replace files within archives. These are already
set up for file archives.
Entries within Disk archives can not be added, deleted or replaced, (without
some extra mucking around previously mentioned), all you can do is extract so
the parameter files are set to do this only.
Yes, it will handle DMS, ADF and any other archive that xad can handle.
