WComp is the
world's leading
program in file-identification
on Personal Computer.
WComp is a program for whoever wants to know which
compiler
or, more in general, which program has been used to produce
executable
(.COM, .EXE) and non-executable files.
WComp makes possible the identification of several hundreds of
files providing extensive information about each one.
WComp is useful to
identify
files that have been
recovered by ChkDsk (or Norton Disk Doctor, etc..)
and generally to examine what is on a hard disk.
It is a
'universal shell'
. It allows you to run
every file you want relative to the identified format.
It is a
'universal scanner'
. It's possible to search
specific bytes and determine the kind of format.
In this way you can analyze an unlimited number of files.
WComp reports which files are larger or smaller
according to the percentage of space they occupy in your hard disk
WComp computes a
(useful against virus!)
It can do a
global rename
by true extension.
It can choose to analyzes the
DOS/WIN/OS2/WIN NT
files.
WComp does a report by extension analyzing more
than
known extensions.
WComp will run on any IBM PC or compatible. Other requirements
(minimum) are:
- 80286 cpu
- 256 KB of memory.
- PC-DOS 3.0 or greater or MS-DOS 3.0 or greater.
- One diskette drive, but Hard Drive recommended.
- 200 KB of disk space.
- WComp.Exe, WComp.Ini
WComp is distributed under the
"SHAREWARE"
concept.
This gives the user the opportunity to evaluate the program
before registering the software.
If after a
day period you find this program useful,
your
registration
is requested.

the future versions of WComp completely free.
If you are a programmer, automatic insertion of your own
programs (or a program you like) (max. 10) in the database
(likely to be produced in the future)
A big incentive for developing and optimizing WComp
Alter : Crypts Diet, LzExe, PkLite compressed files
Call-Now: Shows you when you have to call the BBS,
with sorting, etc..
DeAlter : Decrypts Diet, LzExe, PkLite compressed files
Exe2Gif : Extracts .GIF from .EXE if present. (GifExe)
FHid : Report of all that is HIDDEN in every drive
(files, directories..)
SFc : Super File Compare
Split : Splits big files
WClite
: completely similar to WComp, but it occupies
less memory
less space
(no verbose)
FASTER than WComp!
Feel free to distribute & copy the shareware version.
The registered version is private and cannot be sold nor
distributed.
Much time and effort has been invested in the creation of WComp
Your contributions are
FUNDAMENTAL
for the continual improvement
and correction of the eventual errors of this program.
SUPPORT SHAREWARE!!!
Usage: WComp [options] [[path]file] [options]
WComp = The executable file analyzer program.
options = The different WComp options that you
can specify.
file = The name of the executable file being
analyzed
path = The path location of the executable
file being analyzed.
KNOTE
@: Parameters listed in [ ] are optional.
Running WCOMP without arguments will make it scan every
.COM and/or .EXE file found in the current directory.
Wildcards (i.e. '*' and '?') are accepted.
You can use '.' instead of '*.*'
Files not residing on the current drive can be scanned by
specifying the appropriate paths.
WComp searches files ending with .EXE or .COM if the extension
is omitted.
WComp will prompt you with 'Continue, Nonstop (C/n) ?'
after having displayed 25 lines of text.
Pressing the
key the execution will immediately exit
the program.
KNOTE:
The interruption will be active
after
the complete scan of the
last analyzed file

You can enter options everywhere on the command-line.
You can use upper or lower-case letters.
'/' or '-' are the same.
Options can be "mixed"
Ex: WComp -ccom -rdoc -3 -atxt -b -aexe -ggif -o
KNOTE
-E Option: you can automatically rename the identified file with
the true extension.
NOTE: The WCOMP-KEY (defined in the 'FORMATS (WCOMP-KEY)'
section),
always coincide with the true extension
of the file. If you wish to use the -e option it is advisable
to change the WCOMP-KEY with true extension written
in 'WComp.Ext'
It is
STRONGLY
advisable the use of the -ep option
that asks a confirmation for every matched file
-F Options : Advantages: - If you want to know which formats occupy
more (or less) space on your disk
- If you want to test many
compressors, having the percentage
of the different type of files.
Disadvantages: - You must use
these options on
the command-line.
(WComp.Ini not used)
-I Option : Advantages: - You can put your Ini everywhere
(Root directory will thanks you!)
KNOTE
Obviously, this is the only option
you can't write in Ini
('Options' command)
-O Options : the user can subordinate the scan done by WComp.
ONLY if your analysis gives you bad results ,
WComp scans the file itself.
Advantages: - To update the scan of a format
- To fix the identification
(WComp was incorrect or out-of-date
for that format)
Disadvantages: - WComp (30%-50%) slower
So,
first
analysis with WComp.Ini,
if no success, WComp.Exe is used
-O Option : disabled (default)
Advantages : 30-50% faster
Disadvantages : The user is surely limited, because
WComp doesn't pay attention to WComp.Ini
If it is not sure, WComp.Ini is used.
-R Options : You can compute the CRC
(Cyclic Redunancy Check 32 bit)
Advantages: - You can understand if your files have
been modified (maybe a virus? ).
(
except
virus STEALTH)
- You can understand if your files are
correct.
Ex: you could have corrupted files,
but the files could have the same
length yet.
If you compare your old CRC
(saved before with WComp on a log-file)
with the new CRC
32, you can see the
corrupted file.
(particularly useful for executables!)
-2 Option : scan more
accurate
-2 starts the universal scan
Advantages: - It reports a correct analysis where
'fast mode' fails
- Better recognition of programs
compiled with C, Clipper, ASM,etc...
- Device Driver, etc..(discover the rest!)
- Scramblers..
- It visualizes the first line of
a text file
(scan done with specific extensions)
- Some Pklite deeply altered
Disadvantages: - Slower than 'fast mode'
-3 Option : It includes
the features of -2 and more.
With this option you can enable the
accurate
scan done by WComp.
Advantages : More information than -2 option:
- It visualizes the first line of
a text file
(extension independent)
- Programmer/Author/Coder of the file.
- EMS handler
- Floating point (C
Compiler)
- Stack overflow
- Several Music-Players (MiniMod, HSC...etc)
- BGI
- GreenLeaf Library
- SFX: Central Point
- If the program requires a 386 to run
- If diet/lzexe/pklite altered files, the
altered strings is reported
(useful for intro...demo, etc..)
- Better recognition of several Ansi
- The formats: .ANS, .VOC , .MOD , .LBM
are searched inside the file
- Some Clipper file
Disadvantages: - Slower than /2 option
-AXXX , -CXXX
-FXXX , -GXXX
-RXXX , -SXXX options : - (XXX) wildcards accepted
Coder!
With -3 option, WComp reports the programmer/author/coder
of the file.
WComp can reports a maximum of two authors.
Why two and not one? Because a file could use extern libraries.
Environment
You can use the 'environment' variable $WCOMP$.
Example : SET $WCOMP$ = -v -2 *.dat
Now, if you enter the command : wcomp *.exe -b -g+
the command will be : wcomp -v -2 *.dat *.exe -b -g+
DOS Shell
At any time pressing
'ALT-J'
WComp opens a DOS shell.
You can leave WComp temporarily to perform a DOS command or
run another program. To return to WComp, type "EXIT"
at the DOS prompt.
When you create a pure ASCII file called 'WCOMP.INI', WComp
becames a universal shell and a universal scan.
'WComp.Ini' can be located everywhere in your hard disk.
You must write the FULL_PATH_NAME (drive+directory+filename)
using the 'environment' variable WCOMP or the -I option
- Using the 'environment' variable -
Ex: SET $WCOMP$ = -v -2 *.dat "C:\UT\WCOMP.INI" -u
quotes needed
- Using the -I option -
Ex: wcomp -ic:\ut\personal.ini *.exe
^^
spaces between -i and the full_path_name
The new name of the Ini will be 'Personal.Ini', and will must be
located in 'c:\ut'.
If you don't use 'SET $WCOMP$' nor the -I option, the Ini must be
located in the root directory (C:\) with this name : 'WComp.Ini'
WComp.Ini
Path_Extension :
You must write the full_path_name for 'WComp.Ext'
after the 'Path_Extension' command
So, 'WComp.Ext' can be renamed too. If the full_path_name is not
written, a file called 'WComp.Ext' must be put in the
root directory (C:\).
Needed (first line).
Options :
Enabling the 'Options' you can write your arguments
(similar to the command-line).
This is useful if you don't want to use the environment variable.
Needed (second line).
Disable_Obj_Cgm :
Enabling the 'Disable_Obj_Cgm' command you can disable the verbose
option for 'Object' and 'Computer Graphics Metafile' files.
Two parameters accepted: 'Yes' or 'No'
This is useful when you need the verbose option (for example
you want to scan all the hard disk)
except
for those two formats
because the output would be too large in a logfile.
Default: 'No' (disabled).
Needed (third line).
DisableCdRom :
Enabling the 'DisableCdRom' command you can disable
the scan into the CdRom drive.
One parameter accepted: drive
This is useful when you want to scan all the hard disk
except
the CdRom
Needed (fourth line).
1) Shell Section.
It allows you to run every file you want relative to the
identified format.
Structure:
WCOMP-KEY command or program you want to link
WCOMP-KEY command or program you want to link
WCOMP-KEY command or program you want to link
WCOMP-KEY command or program you want to link
WCOMP-KEY command or program you want to link
......... ...................................
^^^^^
at least
space
WCOMP-KEY: Are the extensions you can found in the
'Formats (WCOMP-KEY)'
section.
Command or program you want to link: the operation you want to do
with the analyzed format
(max length: 60 char)
You can use the WCOMP-KEY with multiple commands separating them
with a '|'.
You can write '%1' if you want to use the filename like an argument.
There are 4 predefined WCOMP-KEY : EXC , NE, SFX, WCO
= linked to : Com/Exe compressed files (ice, optlink,shrink..)
= linked to : any NON-DOS prg (Windows, OS/2..etc..)
= linked to : self-extracting prg (arj, pkzip,....)
= linked to : files of which WComp reports the compiler
EX:
GIF GIFDUMP %1>DUMP | SHOWGIF %1 | GIFLITE %1
ZIP pkzip -v %1
EXC UNP %1 | pkl %1 | chk4lite %1
ARJ ARJ m %1 *.diz | arj d %1 *.sdi | arj t %1
^^^^^
at least
one space
Lines beginning with ';' are comments only.
The ';' must be put int the
first
column
WComp does a disk-swapping. So your program can use the maximum
memory available. If you set the environment variable called
SWAPDIR, you can set the path of the swapfile created by
WComp. If you use a ramdisk the shell will be faster
If you don't use SWAPDIR , WComp puts the swapfile in the current
directory.
KNOTE
Multiple command : the process is from left to right.
Remember : the WCOMP-KEY
- IS NOT -
the extension of the
file, but the extension you can found in the
'Formats (WCOMP-KEY)'
section.
So, if a file called FOO.DDD is recognized as 'PkZip',
the WCOMP-KEY will be 'ZIP'.
Even if the -u option is not used, when WComp scans
a diet/lzexe/pklite altered file, if you want to decrypt or
decompress the file, WComp will enable the shell section the same
(WComp.Ini searched), searching for the correct WCOMP-KEY.
The "NE" "NE" has the priority on "WCO".
EX: Even if the file 'calendar.exe' is compiled under microsoft C
but it is a windows program too, WComp links the tasks to "NE"
2) Scan Section.
YOU can identify the files
like using your analysis
Structure:
[SCAN]
[INFO] msg to display
[EXT] extension
[SIZEn] file-length
[RET] errorlevel
[STR] offset ( - offset), string
[BYTE] offset ( - offset), byte(s)
[!BYTE] offset ( - offset), byte(s)
[WK] WCOMP-KEY
[END]
[]= Brackets needed
[SCAN] It means the section 'universal scan' starts
soon afterwards.
Needed.
Only once in WComp.Ini.
[INFO] msg to display
If WComp match the format, WComp will display the
phrase following [INFO]
Needed.
Only once for every format.
Max length : 80
[EXT] extension
WComp checks the extension, if equal WComp
continues the analysis.
Optional. If 'extension' is 'E&C'
the format's extension can be EXE o COM.
Only once for every format.
Max length : 3
[SIZEn] length of file
Check the length of the file using the condition
defined with n. n= '>'
'<'
'='
If condition is false stop the analysis on the current
format.
Only once for every format.
Optional.
Max length of 'length of file': 10
[RET] errorlevel
Return a value known as 'errorlevel'
(between 1 and 255). This value erase the precedent
value used by WComp in 'errorlevel section'.
Only once for every format.
Optional.
Max length : 3
[STR] offset, string.
File matched if string is found at 'offset'.
'String' can contain spaces.
Unlimited times for every format.
Max length : 40
[BYTE] offset, byte(s)
File matched if byte(s) is found at 'offset'.
Unlimited times for every format.
Max length : 8
[!BYTE] offset, byte(s)
File matched if byte(s) is NOT found at 'offset'.
Unlimited times for every format.
Max length : 8
[WK] WCOMP-KEY
WCOMP-KEY used if you want to link the format
with the 'universal shell'
Only once for every format.
Optional.
Max length : 9
[END] Ends the Scan Section.
Only once in 'WComp.Ini'
Needed.
RANGE commands
[STR] start - end , stringa
[BYTE] start - end , byte(s)
[!BYTE] start - end , byte(s)
Those commands follows the same rules as above. They scan
the files starting from 'start' until 'end'.
The '-' is necessary.
KNOTE
[STR] , [BYTE] or [!BYTE] must be present for the scan
[STR] is slightly faster than the other commands
'byte' can't exceed the maximum of 8 characters, and the length
must be even.
Ex:..........
..........
[BYTE] 003, ab34f
^^^^^
incorrect
[BYTE] 003, 0ab34f
^^^^^^
correct
'Byte' : hex format
'Errorlevel' : dec format
'Estension' : ascii format
'Length of file' : dec format
'Msg to display' : ascii format
'Offset' : hex format
dec format (if end with 'd')
'String' : ascii format
'WCOMP-KEY' : ascii format
Lines beginning with ';' are comments only.
The ';' must be put int the
first
column
Precedence: (from the top to the down)
[INFO]
The rest of the command :
[EXT] [SIZEn] [RET] [STR] [BYTE] [!BYTE] [WK]
You can put them as you want.
Ex:

How to optimize WComp.Ini
Reduce your comments to minimum.
If possible use [STR] instead of [BYTE], [!BYTE]
Write [EXT] before the commands [STR],[BYTE],[!BYTE]
Use [EXT] if possible.
Use [SIZEn] if possible.
Use the RANGE comands only where is strictly necessary
Erase [WK] if they are not important
NOTE
WComp doesn't check if the syntax is correct!
A incorrect syntax will report unpredictable results!
All the commands (enclosed within []), must be necessary
uppercase
must be written in the first column without spaces inside the [],
and with (at least) one space after the command.
Ex:
[BYTE ] 0, ab34
^
incorrect! (no space!)
[BYTE]0, ab34
^
incorrect! (one space at least after the command)
The rest of the WComp.Ini can be written uppercase or lowercase,
putting all the space you want.
You have a maximum of 1 WCOMP-KEY (shareware version).
" " 100 WCOMP-KEY (registered version)
A public WComp.Ini is included in the WComp package.
It is also useful if you want to examine the syntax of the Ini.
If you upload the WComp package, please don't modify the public
WComp.Ini. If you send me your personal Ini, it will be included
in the next version of WComp.
If you use the '-X' option, WComp compares the extension of the file
with the extensions written in the 'WComp.Ext' file.
If '-X+' option is used, the comparison is always done, otherwise
if you use the '-X-' option, the comparison is done only if
WComp has not been able to analyze the file (a mark '
' is displayed
when the descriptions of 'WComp.Ext' are used)
'WComp.Ext' structure
at least
one space
.ext description(enter)
\extension
'.'
\in the first column
NOTE
The extensions must be in alphabetically order
A incorrect syntax will report unpredictable results!
A public WComp.Ext is included in the WComp package.
If you upload the WComp package, please don't modify the public
WComp.Ext. You can freely modify the WComp.Ext file. Please
mention:
Jouni Miettunen - 1607 extensions, author of Filex
Michele Catania - 367 extensions (and prg known by WComp)
author of WComp
Any other maintainer....
Send me your WComp.Ext.
It will be included in the next version of WComp.

WComp recognizes the following executable compressors/scramblers:
AinExe (2.2)
AvPack (1.2)
Axe (ALL)
Bin-Lock
ComPack (4.2, 4.5)
Crunch
CryptExe Scrambler (1.00)
DeltaPacker
Diet (1.00d, 1.20, 1.44, 1.45f)
Epw Scrambler
Exepack (3.60
3.65, 3.69, 4.00, 4.05
4.06, 5.31)
Executable File Protector
Giant XPack
Gardian Angel Scrambler
HackStop
Ice (1.00)
Inertia Scrambler
Jam (2.11)
LzExe (0.90 ,0.91)
OptLink
Protect! (1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 3.1, 4.0, 5.0, 5.5)
Pklite (1.00, 1.03, 1.12, 1.13, 1.14, 1.15, 1.20)
Pro-Pack (2.08)
Qpeg Scrambler
RoseTiny Scrambler (ALL)
Scrnch (1.00, 1.02)
Shrink
TinyProg (3.x , 3.9)
UCExe (2.3)
WinLite
WWPack (3.00, 3.01, 3.02, 3.03, 3.04)
Xoe Scrambler
YifPress
KNOTE
If you need a FAST Scan about those scramblers ONLY, -C...options
should be used!
WComp is successful in recognizing Diet,LzExe,
Pklite-compressed programs which have been encrypted in order to
make them impossible to decompress
In which case, WComp will display [Altered!] next to the
program's name, and ask whether you wish to decrypt it or not.
KNOTE
Files compressed with Diet 1.00 and Diet 1.00d are IDENTICAL, so
WComp always displays 1.00d as the version number.
Diet version (>1.00d - 1.20) : always displayed 1.20 as the
version number.
Decryption is done assuming the header is the same of the more
current releases; it is suggested to make a backup copy
before proceeding.
The decryption is a obsolete function if you own a exe-decompressor.
For example, those programs are very GOOD exe-decompressors:
CUP [(c) Alex A.P.]
TRON [(c) SmileSoft Company]
UNP [(c) Ben Castricum]
KNOTE
WComp actually restores the 'signatures' required by the
programs which expand the executables.
WComp tries to determine whether an executable has been generated by
the AMG, ARC, ARJ, BSA, BSArc, EXE (BuildSfx), Central Point, ChArc,
DWC, JRC, LARC, LHA, PAK, PKZIP, QUARK ,RAR, SQZ compressors, as these
utilities let you build self-extracting archives.
Recognized versions are: Amg (2.2)
Arc (6.0
Arj (2.0
BSA (2.0)
BSArc (1.9)
BuildSfx
Central Point
ChArc (1.1)
Dwc
JRchive (1.0)
Larc (All)
Lha (2.0
Pak (2.5
Pkzip (1.1
Quark (1.0)
Rar (1.5
Sqz (1.0
An indication about the type ('mini' or 'standard') of .ZIP and .SQZ
self-extracting files is given.

Visual Basic (1.0, 2.0, 3.0, (Windows compiler))
Watcom C (6.5 , 8.5) (16 Bit - 32 Bit)
Zortech C (16 Bit - 32 Bit)
- Version numbers enclosed in brackets are recognized by WComp.
- WComp cannot distinguish:
version 4.0 and 4.1 of QuickBasic
version 3.0 and 4.0 of Asic (.com)
version 1.00 and 1.0x of Turbo C++
Turbo C++ 3.0 and Borland C++ x.xx
- The type of assembler is not specified for assembly programs;
a generic 'Assembler' is displayed next to them.
- TurboBat: only non-registered versions are identified.
- If the program has been encrypted in any way, WComp could possibly
identify the compiler but not the version (even if it is among
the recognized ones), because crypting makes identification-strings
partially visible.
Sometimes, only the language is identified; in such a case, a
question mark ('?') is displayed before the name of the language
(e.g. '? C').
WComp recognizes:
Alchemy (sophisticated and complete graphic file converter)
Ansi (Ansi inside .EXE)
Bgi (Borland) [Graphics]
Blinker (Linker)
Borland Debug , Overlay, Resource
CauseWay (Linker)

Spawno Library (Library (shelling, swapping..etc..))
Swap Library (Library (shelling, swapping..etc..))
Tlink (Linker)
Turbo Anti-Virus Immunization (Anti-virus Code inoculator)
XSpawn Library (Library (shelling, swapping..etc..))
While every effort has been made to ensure that the identifications
that WComp makes are accurate it will never be perfect. Sometimes
WComp will not recognise a file that it knows about.
Why? Due to the large number of file formats, and the inherent
difficulty in obtaining , analyzing and distinguishing them.
You assume full responsibility for the selection and use of WComp to
achieve your intended results.
WComp is not infallible!
So......
- WCOMP may not recognize completely:
- Windows programs
- Programs provided with DOS
- Executable generators which WCOMP recognizes, such as TC.EXE,
TPC.EXE, TLIB.EXE etc.
- Assembled programs
- Trackers programs (it could report the presence of sound's files)
- File-Identifiers/Converters programs
- And any format which has been recently modified, off course!!
File-Identifiers: if you want to know the compiler, for those
programs ONLY, the 'fast' scan could be
better than 'deep' or 'extreme' scan
(deep & extreme could be confused)
I would be very grateful to anyone providing the information
for the exact identification of newer versions of compilers or new
products.
Also, it would be very helpful if you could submit files (even small
ones) that cannot be recognized, so that I may study them.
Coder!
Differents technics
are implemented for the analysis of the true
coder of the program. Unfortunately there isn't a standard which
is used by the programmers. So, sometimes WComp will be confused.
Ascii is a filter for displaying the ASCII contents
of an .EXE or .COM file; it is a very useful aid for WComp
in identifying the signature left by the compilers.
Usage: Ascii [path]files []= optional
Example: Ascii tc*.exe make.exe g*.com c:\*.exe
InFoExe extracts a lot of information about .EXE
(DOS , Windows, etc...)
Usage: InfoExe [options] [path]files[.exe] [options] []= optional
-e Enable Relocation Locations Display
-o Disable Old Executable Display
-l Display Software License Agreement
-n Disable New Executable Display
-v Verbose
Example: InfoExe tc[*.exe] ma[ke.exe] c:\[*.exe]
With the -v option more information will be displayed
(New Executable Header)
WControl is a useful utility to WComp
Usage: WControl <option> input-file output-file
Options:
-c CRC Mode
-m Merge Mode
-o Option Setup
-d Comment Remover
-l Display Software License Agreement
-c OPTION
I've taken some care to avoid virus-infections.
Here is some information to check the validity of the programs
which are part of the WCOMP package:
Run WCONTROL with the '-c' option, which will check the
WComp 2.01 package.
KNOTE
@ that the files MUST have original names,
otherwise they will not be checked.
Example: WControl -c
-d OPTION
WControl deletes the comments in your Ini.
So, this operation will give you a faster search inside the Ini.
Example: WControl -d WComp.Ini
-m OPTION
WControl updates the Ini with new formats.
It is possible to append any format to the end of the file
Usage: WControl upd_filename your_ini
upd_filename : ascii-file containing new formats,
it must follow the rules of syntax of the universal
scan
your_ini : your personal ini
WControl searches the command [END].
Afterwards, WControl appends the upd_filename to your_ini.
Ex: PRIVATE.INI (your_ini) FORM.UPD (upd_filename)
.......... [INFO] Graphics 1.0
[INFO] Dbase 3.0 [STR] 0, graphic
[STR] 0, Dbase [INFO] SpreadSheet 2.0
[END] [STR] 0, Sheet
After the execution of WControl (WControl private.ini form.upd),
your Ini will be :
...........
[INFO] Dbase 3.0
[STR] 0, Dbase
[INFO] Graphics 1.0
[STR] 0, graphic
[INFO] SpreadSheet 2.0
[STR] 0, Sheet
[END]
KNOTE:
@ Upd_filename: don't write the [SCAN], [END] commands.
Only new formats are needed
(you can use the comments off course)
If any comment will be found after the [END] command,
it will be overwritten.
-o OPTION
WControl automatically writes the options in your Ini
Usage: WControl -o WComp.Ini
KNOTE
WControl doesn't check if there is a conflict between the options
WCOMP will exit with an errorlevel of the last file tested.
The errorlevels are:
0 Unknown

uploaded files, then you could have a batch file like:
WCOMP %1
if errorlevel 227 goto ITS_MOD
if errorlevel 35 goto ITS_ZIP
if errorlevel 4 goto ITS_TGA
if errorlevel 1 goto ITS_GIF
............
............
goto UN_KNOWN
I've taken some care to avoid virus-infections.
Here is some information to check the validity of the executables
which are part of the WCOMP package:
2) Run WCHECK without any argument, which will check the
WComp 2.01 .
KNOTE
@ that the files MUST have original names,
otherwise they will not be checked.

Limited Distribution License:
-----------------------------
All people are permitted and encouraged to give shareware copies of
the complete WComp package to friends and co-workers as long as no
fee is charged.
Non-profit
user groups may include the WComp package in their
libraries and distribute evaluation copies for their normal disk
fees unless notified otherwise by me.
All others, including anyone interested in bundling the WComp
package with hardware or software sales, must obtain permission and
a license before distributing.
Due to the large number of file formats, and the inherent difficulty
in obtaining them, I would be very grateful if you could send me any
information regarding any file format, executable or not (and, in
such a case, possibly their structure) which is not currently
identified by WComp, or if you are the author of a program which
makes new formats (executables, not executables, graphics, sound,
etc...) Please communicate with me by mail or via Matrix.
My thanks for the contribution in developing WCOMP go to:

DataBase
If WComp 2.01 will be appreciated from a a good number of people
I will produce a Database (maybe an hypertext) containing
all the programs and all the format recognized (and NOT recognized)
by WComp.
It is a ponderous task, I really need your help.
If you can help me (write/phone me).
I need your advice.
This section describes
- some -
ways to utilize WComp to
its full potential. Suggestions are always welcome!
/A+ option =
if you want to find out
how your hard disk
is structured,
understanding what you own
/B option =
if you hate touching the
keyboard during the scan
if you want to know the
REAL time used by WComp
for the analysis
/C+ /2 options =
put in 'WComp.Ini'
- LZ your_decompressor |
new_compressor.
For example all the
files compressed with
LzExe could be
automatically
recompressed with Pklite ricompressi in modo
/F+ option =
if you want to find out
how your hard disk
is structured, which
formats occupy more space
/F option =
if you need initial
info and then if you
want to test many
compressors (ARJ,PKZIP,
UC2,RAR...etc..)
/V option =
if you are interested
in analysis.... of the
resolution of graphics
files....of the samples
of sound files..and
MORE, MUCH MORE!
Opzione /V /3 /O /X- =
if you want the DEEPEST
analysis, that's for you!
/X- option =
when WComp does not give
satisfying results,
this option could be
the last resort
/2 /O options =
if you want subordinate
the scan done by WComp to
your personal scan.
command-line : wcomp -c+ -u
decompression of all the
execompressed-file
WCOMP.INI
(LzExe also)
LZ unp %1 | wwpack %1
compression with WWPack
EXC unp %1 | wwpack %1
(process
automatically
done in all the hard disk!)
command-line : wcomp -azip -u -aexe
ZIP and SFX Archive
are looked for,
FILE_ID.DIZ is extracted
WCOMP.INI
(process
automatically
ZIP exdiz %1
done in all the hard disk!)
SFX exdiz %1
command-line : wcomp -agif -u
GIF are looked for,
conversion GIF->JPG
WCOMP.INI
JPG is displayed
ZIP gif2jpg %1 | jpgview %1
(process
automatically
done in all the hard disk!)
command-line : wcomp *.exe -u
files with EXE extension are
looked for through all the hd,
WCOMP.INI
if they are
not DOS
, they are
NE move %1 c:\utwin
moved in an other dir
command-line : wcomp -aexe -u -2
files with EXE extension are
looked for
through all the hd
WCOMP.INI
if they have been immunized
VIR scan /RV %1
with the SCAN, it removes
the immunization automatically
command-line : wcomp -a- -2 -o -ep
non-executable files are
looked for through all the hd
WCOMP.INI
if they are 'HyperText..' ,
..........
WComp checks if the extension
[INFO] HyperText Markup Language
is the same as the extension
[STR] 0, <html>
shown in the [WK], if it is
[WK] HTM
different,WComp asks to
.........
rename the extension
files with EXE extension are
command-line : wcomp -aexe -k1
looked for through all the hd,
if they are Win prg, they are
not analyzed
sorting of your files
command-line : wcomp -f+
by extension and space occupied
Remember to write in the 'WComp.Ini' shell section
the following phrase : 'EXC your_decompressor'
EXC is not for compack, diet, lzexe, pklite , tinyprog,
ucexe and wwpack.
If you want to use those compressors you must use specific WCOMP-KEY
Don't remove the first three lines of WComp.Ini
Remember: -3 option is slow. Use it only if you need the
information shown in section 'Options' of this document.
Otherwise uses the -2 option (faster!)
Remember to use the -ep option instead ohf the -e option if you
want to be
safer
I advise you to use the '-o' option if you use the '-2' option
Coder
If you wish
better results
, it is useful to scan the
executables (not compressed) only.
Press
'Escape'
if you want to break the analysis at any time
instead of Ctrl-Break
Remember that the final time also includes the pauses
and the time elapsed during request for input
(ex Continue, Nonstop..etc..)
Remember to write me new possible use of WComp
File's recognition under OS/2 & Windows NT
Windows version
BBS version
At least 300 formats recognized...(more than 700,...800,...?)
A DataBase including every recognized format

If you are a programmer,
automatic
insertion of your own programs
(or a program you like) (max. 10) in the database
(likely to be produced in the future)
incentive for developing WComp
Alter : Crypts Diet, LzExe, PkLite compressed files
Call-Now: Shows you when you have to call the BBS, sorting, etc..
DeAlter : Decrypts Diet, LzExe, PkLite compressed files
Exe2Gif : Extracts .GIF from .EXE if present. (GifExe)
FHid : Report of all that is HIDDEN in every drive
(files, directories..)
SFc : Super File Compare
Split : Splits big files
WClite
: exactly like WComp, but requires
much less memory
much less space
, no verbose,
FASTER than WComp!
Feel free to copy & distribute the 'SHAREWARE' version
The registered version is private and cannot be sold nor
distributed.
Much time and effort
has been invested in the creation of WComp
Your contributions are
FUNDAMENTAL
for the continual improvement and
correction of the eventual errors of this program.

Every effort has been made to ensure that the identifications
that WComp makes are accurate, but it will never be perfect.
Sometimes WComp will not recognize a file that it knows about.
Why? Due to the large number of file formats, and the inherent
difficulty in obtaining , analyzing and distinguishing them.
You assume full responsibility for the selection and use of WComp to
achieve your intended results.

This is my - personal - opinion.
Those following programs are
the best
programs actually.
WWPACK 3.03
: Best executable's compressor. It owns the highest
compression. It is slower (when it compress) than his nearest competitor
(UCEXE 2.3), but this is NOT important. What you REALLY need is the final
size occupied by the file.
HACKSTOP
: Best anti-hacking program. The other programs are not
reliable like this.
CUP 1.2
: Best executable's unpacker . UNP 4.11 is nice too,
and a mention for TRON 1.21 is needed
You can find those nice program on ftp-site: ftp.elf.stuba.sk
