LZHC v1.0
- Converts ARC, PAK, ZIP files to LHARC format -
Copyright (C) 1989 CollisionWare(tm) Premium SoftWare

The files that should be included in this archive are:
LZHC.EXE - Executable Zip Converter Program
LZHC.DAT - Configuration file for ZIPC.EXE
LZHC.DOC - This Documetation
LZHC.PAS - Turbo Pascal v5.0 source code for ZIPC.EXE
CWARE.TPU - CollisionWare unit needed to re-compile ZIPC.EXE
LZHC is the actual executable file...the format for usage is:
LZHC [filepath] [D]
Where:
[filepath] = full filepath for file(s) to convert (wildcards excepted)
[D] = if the D option is used, the original file WILL NOT be
deleted
Examples of usage:
LZHC C:\FIDO\FILE\*.*
This will convert all files in the C:\FIDO\FILE\ directory with the
extenstions .PAK, .ARC, or .ZIP to .LZH. It will also delete each file
converted.
LZHC C:\DOWNLOAD\MYFILE.ARC D
This will convert MYFILE.ARC to MYFILE.LZH (hopefully saving space), but
will NOT delete the original file MYFILE.ARC.
LZHC FOO.PAK
This reauires that LZHC is in the same directory as FOO.PAK. It will
convert FOO.PAK to FOO.LZH without deleting the original file.
Some Misc. Notes:
You must edit the text file ZIPC.DAT to fit your needs. What must exist on
EACH line is in the actual file, but you must leave the first few lines,
or the program will not function correctly. It is all rather simple really.
You also must have the archive programs (PKZIP,PAK,PKARC,LHARC) in the
paths that must be specified in LZHC.DAT. If the paths are incorrect,
but that specific program is not used to convert the files you have,
then you should be ok. Otherwise, the program will not perform properly
when it comes to a file that needs that archive program.
If you don't know anything about LHARC, this little bit of info might
be helpful:
LHARC is a file compression program new to the and US created in Japan.
It is one of the best ones I have found, and compresses much smaller
than PKZIP. The C source is readily becoming available, and the .EXE
file is small and easy to use. Hope this is helpful.
WARRANTY:
There is NO warranty. I have spent a lot of time writing this little
program, as I do in all my programs, no matter how simple they are.
However, I make no warranties, or guarantees. I will tell you this
program DOES work on my computer, but it may NOT work on yours, therfore
I am not going to say it will, because of the fact I would probably get
sued for it. You USE THIS PROGRAM AT YOUR OWN RISK!
CollisionWare SoftWare:
Look for other CollisionWare(tm) files soon....I have also created
an ARC/PAK/LHARC to PKZIP converter which should be wherever you foundout within a day or two
this. Also, there is a program called BREAKER already available that
seperates text files. A voting program for Fido/OPUS/QuickBBS should
be available soon, as well as some utilites for Opus.
Expect some other programs from CollisionWare(tm) Premium SoftWare Soon!
Have fun...and send whatever you want to:
