■ Introduction
Stick-Buster is the first program created, to open ALL shrinkers,
encryptors, stickers and intros (SESI from now on). The full list is in
the bottom of this document. Version 2.40 opens 35 different types of
SESIs (not including the subtypes, of course).
Stick-Buster will create a file, that is almost similar in it's size to
the original file (usually a maximum of 1-2K difference), regardless of
unused areas of the EXE file, such as it's header. (PKLite for example,
stores it's original file's characteristics there, but stick-buster
ignores it, and still opens that file).
■ Usage
┌───────────┬─────────┬─────────────────────────┬────────────────────────┐
│ Sbust.EXE │ Options │Source_File[.COM | .EXE] │ Destination_File[.EXE] │
└───────────┴─────────┴─────────────────────────┴────────────────────────┘
Because of the chance that the destination file won't work, I decided
to still not allow to override the original EXE / COM file.
The registered version of Stick-Buster 2.11, now allows you to remove
the main file instead of the sticked file, when you remove Message
Stickers or Ady's Glue.
A new option was added to Stick-Buster in version 2.11, that is used to
display all known programs that Stick-Buster finds. To use it simply
type: sbust -l
Stick-Buster version 2.40 operates on COM files as well as EXE file.
The destination file is always EXE.

■ DAMAGE Inc. ■ Additional note:
if you like stick-buster why not send the author a little
contribution ? (5 NIS) we have found recently that stick-buster is
MUCH MUCH MUCH better than Xopen; Xopen is full of bugs and
sometimes gives "GENERIC ERROR" while stick-buster NEVER fails.
