The original CiderPress cannot work with compressed disk images. The MacOSX build of the mdc tool (source in the linux sub-directory) handles compressed disk images transparently.
Given below is a catalog printout of a 30K image file from the GoldenOrchard 1.2 iso.

Will we get to see "Cider-X-Press" by some programming genius(es) out there? A "click-dragNdrop" of a file/folder from one to its windows to another or to Finder's desktop/window (& vice-versa) will make users of the original CiderPress green with envy. The program "Shrink-Fit X" is a good start. In the meantime, kudos to Andy Fadden and Kelvin Sherlock.
