Please note that this document was written by Jon
Webb, and not by Robert Jung. Robert may disagree
with any or all parts of this documentation, in
which case I will gladly change it.
UNARJ was ported to Atari ST using the sources supplied with
the PC version of ARJ 2.00. It can be used to extract
archives created with the ARJ archiver on the PC. These
archives have extention .ARJ. To my knowledge there is no ST
version of ARJ yet.
In addition to what the PC version of UNARJ does, the ST
version can extract archives which contain full paths. You
can also specify the destination of files and/or specify
wildcards on the command line.
The UNARJ command line has the following format:
UNARJ archive[.ARJ] [destination][filespec] [-P]
archive: path & name of archive to extract. If no
extension is given, .ARJ is assumed.
destination: path to folder where extracted files should
be placed. Default is the current folder. If
the destination is NUL the files will be
decompressed but not written to disk. This is
handy for testing archive integrity (CRC and
such).
filespec: name of file to extract. May contain
wildcards.
-P: this switch will cause UNARJ to create
folders which are stored in the archive. The
folders will always be created within the
destination folder, or the current folder if
no destination is given.
Examples:
UNARJ games Extract all files in archive
GAMES.ARJ to the current
folder. Don't create folders.
UNARJ games *.doc Extract *.DOC from archive
GAMES.ARJ to the current
folder. Don't create folders.
UNARJ games \fun Extract all files in archive
GAMES.ARJ to the folder \FUN.
Don't create folders.
UNARJ games \fun\*.DOC Extract *.DOC from archive
GAMES.ARJ to the folder \FUN.
Don't create folders.
UNARJ games -P Extract all files from archive
GAMES.ARJ. Create folders in
the current folder.
UNARJ games \fun -P Extract all files from archive
GAMES.ARJ. Create folders in
the folder \FUN.
UNARJ games Test CRC's of files in archive
GAMES.ARJ.
and so on...
The original UNARJ didn't know about Atari ST's. I have
defined an OS TYPE of 5 for ST's.
The utility AV.TTP lists a verbose contents of an .ARJ
archive. Simply specify the path and name of the archive on
the command line.
Distribution:
This ST version of UNARJ may be distributed freely. No
fee may be charged other than nominal copying costs or
online time.
