NAME
xPK
SYNOPSIS
xPK [-frsux] [-p password] [-m method] files
-m = packing method
-f = force repack
-s = don't remove original
-r = recursively (un)pack
-u = unpack (extract)
-p = encrypt/decrypt
-x = pack executables only
DESCRIPTION
xPK is a command line interface to the XPK compression library.
It compresses a file using the method given by -m. After the
process is complete, the original file is removed and replaced
by its compressed version under the same name.
The xPK executable can be renamed to a packer name which will
then be considered as given by -m.
OPTIONS
-m = method. After -m you can indicate the name of the packer
to use, plus a mode number if the packer supports that.
-f = force. Will enforce packing of already XPK-packed files.
-s = suffix. Add a .XPK suffix to the compressed version and
don't remove the original.
-r = recur. If any directories are encountered, they're packed
recursively.
-u = unpack. Will unpack the indicated files. (same as -e).
-p = password. Will be used for encryption or decryption.
-x = executables. Will refuse to pack files that are not
executable or are overlaid. For use with xLoadSeg.
