-x   Expand a Compressed File

This option will expand any files you have compressed with  PKLITE.  When you
use this  option, the  file will  be returned  to its  original size. You can
rename and/or relocate a file when you expand it by using the
[[d:][path] Outfile] option on the command line.

         C:\> PKLITE  -x  FILE.EXE  A:

In the example shown above, the compressed file  FILE.EXE will be expanded and
the expanded file will be located on the A: drive.

After a compressed file is expanded, PKLITE  will  display several  important
facts.   PKLITE   will list   the  name  of  the  compressed  file,  original
(compressed) size of the file, and the expanded size of the file.  The output
file and  location  will  also be listed if appropriate.  An example is shown
below.

         C:\> PKLITE  -x FILE1.EXE  FILE2

       Expanding: FILE1.EXE into file FILE2.EXE
       Original Size: 12299    Expanded Size: 18466


NOTE:  The expand option can be used with the following options:

          -b  Create Backup file
          -o  Overwrite option
          -u  Update time/date


When the -x option is used with the -b option, a backup of the compressed
version of the file will be created with a .BAK extension.

When the -x option is used with the -o option, PKLITE will overwrite any
same-named files without prompting you for confirmation.

You can also use the -x option along with the -u Update option to update to
the current time and date when expanding a file. (If you used the -u Update
time/date option when you compressed the program, then when you expand it,
it will retain the new time and date. The time/date does not return to the
original value.)
