If you prefer Compacs cut a hole in the bottom to make room for the attachment clip as I did here and use the lanyard screw there as well.

Here's the type of quik-link I am talking about. They're in hardware stores.


The lanyard screw costs $2.50 + S&H, and is not found on their website. They do stock it, so if you want one, the order has to be phoned in. To keep the para-cord from fraying, I turned a burner on my stove to high and touched the end of the cord to the red-hot burner.
