  2.                           UnArp v1.3 (27-May-92)
  3. --------------------------------------------------------------------------
  4.  
  5. UnArp  tries to make arp.library (v39.1) more compatible to Kickstart 2.0.
  6. Many  ARP-Calls are replaced by calls to dos.library, the FileRequester is
  7. replaced  by an ASL-Requester, so that tools like "ArpToAsl" are no longer
  8. needed!
  9.  
  10. Simply call it in your Startup-Sequence or User-Startup.
