BETA.DOC November 1992
This is a public BETA TEST version of ARJ. You should ONLY use this
version for TESTING purposes. This version is NOT intended for new
ARJ users. Only experienced ARJ users should test this program.
The next release of ARJ depends upon a successful BETA test which
will take at least SIX weeks.
Please keep in mind that this is BETA TEST version and may have
serious bugs. You should backup your computer data before using this
program and should do so often while using this program.
*******************************************************************
IT IS STRONGLY RECOMMENDED THAT YOU RUN THE TESTBETA.BAT BATCH FILE
TO VERIFY THAT ARJ.EXE IS WORKING CORRECTLY.
*******************************************************************
The most important feature to test is the new compression and
extraction functions. ARJ 2.39B has improved compression speed but
NOT improved compression reduction. Another feature to test is the
new yes/no prompt features. Be sure to use the "-jt" to verify all
of your new archives.
Check the WHATSNEW.DOC and UPDATE.DOC to find out what is new.
If you encounter bugs or other problems, I would appreciate being
notified.
