FASTLZH 1.8 gem add only (FASTLZH.PRG-ACC) and the documentation (FASTLZH.DOC) are Copyright (c) 1990, Gary Burke All rights reserved. FASTLZH 2.5 and FASTLZH 2.0 gem acc is distributed as SHAREWARE. This means that if you enjoy the program and use it, you are expected to become a registered user by sending a contribution of at least $15.00 or anything you can afford to: Gary Burke 31 culver lane North Haven, CT 06473 GENIE - #G.BURKE I also can be reached on HI-TECH BBS (203)776-2850 or on Cemetery Ridge Bbs (914)225-2374 Shareware can be a feasible alternative to the normal means of distribution but it will only work if you do send in your registration fee. I've spent a lot of hours working on FASTLZH 2.5 I'm looking at this as a sort of experiment, So if you'd like to see further updates to FASTLZH 2.5 and other shareware programs, your support will make a difference! Registered users will be informed of any updates, and be the first to receive them when they're ready. Also, if you have suggestions for improving FASTLZH, your opinions will carry more weight if you're registered; I'll work to include any suggestions that seem useful. If you have an account on GEnie please include your user name or ID number when registering this is the easiest way for me to get in touch with you. Your archive should contain FASTLZH.PRG ACC FASTLZH.TTP FASTLZH.DOC UPDATE.DOC FASTLZH may be freely distributed as long as both of the above-mentioned files are included and unaltered. The program may NOT be sold. FASTLZH 2.5 - A program for uncompressing-compressing-testing and viewing .LZH archive files. FASTLZH 2.0 gem Skip to the section GEM VERSION FASTLZH is a self contained program - LHARC does not need to be present to extract files. It is written in 100% Assembly language using hisoft dev2. FASTLZH works the same way as LHARC if you already use LHARC then you can use FASTLZH in exactly the same way. How to Use the Program: ----------------------- FASTLZH can be used as a ttp or tos file just rename file from FASTLZH.TTP to FASTLZH.TOS. As a TTP file you can enter a command line in the standard TOS alert box. From that point on FASTLZH will be automatic there is no more user input. But if for some strange reason you do not enter a command in the alert box FASTLZH will prompt you for your command. As a TOS file FASTLZH will prompt you for your command. FASTLZH works with ARCSHL21.PRG with no problems, but you can not use the "Include folders option" from that shell. Maybe in a future release of the ARCSHELL they will pass the "Z" option to LZH processing like they do when using ARC. FASTLZH also works with FoReM Filemanager v2.5f. COMMANDS -------- x - Extract files from an LZH a - Add files to an LZH m - Move files to an LZH (same as add but files are deleted after they are added) v - Verbose Listing of the contents of an LZH file t - Test an LZH SWITCHES -------- h - Hold screen upon completion of FASTLZH z - Include embedded sub-directories Here are some command examples.... EXTRACTING ---------- x c:\lzhfile.lzh c:\junk\*.* This command will extract all files from the lzhfile into a folder named JUNK, including any sub-folders that may be included in the LZH. If the folder JUNK is not found, it will be created for you. You do not need to create the output folders yourself. You also do not need to use the extender .LZH on your lzh filename. When the task is done FASTLZH will not hold the screen. xh c:\lzhfile c:\junk\*.* Same as above but FASTLZH will wait for keyboard input before exit. NOTES ON EXTRACTING FILES ------------------------- FASTLZH will automatically create any folder needed for output. In order for FASTLZH to process embedded folders in an LZH, that LZH must have been created with FASTLZH v2.5 or greater. It is not compatable with LHARC which stores the folder information in the LZH in a different format. ADDING / MOVING --------------- ah c:\lzhfile c:\junk\*.* This command will add all files contained in the folder JUNK into an LZH called LZHFILE.LZH. It will not include any folders contained in the JUNK folder. It will then wait for a key press before exit. mzh c:\lzhfile c:\junk\*.* This command will add all files contained in the folder JUNK into an LZH called LZHFILE.LZH. It will also include all files contained in any folder contained in the JUNK folder and retain their folder information for later extraction. It will then wait for a key press before exit. OTHER FUNCTIONS --------------- vh c:\lzhfile This command will return a verbose listing of the contents of the LZH. It will then wait for a key press before exit. th c:\lzhfile This command will do a full CRC check on all files contained in the LZH. It basically does everything an extract does but does not write out any files. OTHER NOTES ----------- When specifying filenames you can use any standard TOS wildcard specification. GEM FASLZH gem version 2.0 ---------- All function work the same in the gem version as in the ttp tos. If you wish to have FASTLZH load as an ACC file just rename FASTLZH.PRG to FASTLZH.ACC thats it. ADD --- Adds files to the arc ADD ALL ------- Adds all files in the path to the arc same as the Z command EXTRACT ------- Extracts files from the arc TEST ---- Performs a crc check of files in the arc MOVE ---- Adds files to the arc and deletes the file added VIEW ---- Shows files that are in the arc GEM FASLZH gem version 1.8 adder ---------- All function work the same in the gem version as in the ttp tos. If you wish to have FASTLZH load as an ACC file just rename FASTLZH.PRG to FASTLZH.ACC thats it. This version will add to an archive only..
