1. Introduction
1.1 What is MUP ?
MUP is a multiple unpacker, which supports 18 kinds of archives.
The advantages with MUP are that you don't need to remember the syntax
for each of the unpacker programs. With MUP you can enter the parameters
of each unpacker in the configurationfile ones, and then it uses it
whenever you want to unpack an archive.
MUP does not know how to unpack the files, it just look in the file and
finds out wich archive type it is, and then calls the right unpacker.
1.2 Features
* Supports 18 kinds of archives
(AIN, ARC, ARJ, DWC, GFB, HAP, HPK, HYP, LIM, LZH, MD, PAK, PUT, RAR,
SQZ, UC2, ZIP, ZOO)
* Supports 5 kinds of SFX's
(ARJ, LZH, RAR, SQZ, ZIP)
* Scan the unpacked file(s) for virus
* Only takes up 75 KB of your diskspace
* Very easy to use
* It is FreeWare

1.5. Where to find the newest version of MUP
You can allways find the newest version of MUP in the Simtel archive on

2. Configuration
2.1 How to configurate MUP
MUP automatically goes to the configuration menu if it can't find the
file MUP.CFG in the same directory which MUP.EXE is in.
If you want to go to the configuration menu later to change something,
just enter 'MUP /config' at the command prompt.
2.2 What you need to change
You probably won't have to change anything in the configuration - MUP's
default configuration match most of the times. If you do need to change
something just enter the filename and extension IF the program is in the
path, else you have to enter the full path of the program.
You have to enter the parameters as you would enter them at the command
prompt. Some of the unpackers NEED an 'e' or 'x' to unpack the files,
such as LHarc, ARJ and PAK. Others don't need them, such as PKUNZIP or
PKXARC.
To test an archive you have to enter a 't' at most of them. Please note
that some of the formats doesn't support this.
To list the files in an archive you oftens have to enter a 'l' or 'v'.
If you have any doubts just press F1 to see the Online help.
2.3 Enable/disable the unpackers
If you don't have a unpacker you just use the cursor keys to move the
bar to the specified unpacker and press space. If you want to enable
it again you just press space again.
2.4 The options
If you press F10 at the main configurtaion menu, you will get into the
options menu. Here you can enter up to 3 different virus-scanners.
Under Virus-scanner X (where X is a number between 1 and 3) you have to
enter the filename of the virus-scanner. If you e.g. want to use F-PROT
as your virus-scanner you just enter "F-PROT.EXE" in the field.
Under Options X (where X again is a number between 1 and 3) you have to
enter the options you want to pass to the virus-scanner. If you use
F-PROT you could e.g. enter "/nomem /noboot".

3. Usage
3.1 The syntax
The syntax for MUP is:
MUP <filename.ext> [<destination> {-|/}<switch>]
Where <filename.ext> is the file(s) you want to unpack. The <filename.ext>
may contain wildcards (se next chapter). If you enter a filename without
an extension MUP will automaticaly add ".*" to the end of the filename.
The <destination> and <switch> are optional. If you enter the
<destination> field it must be a valid path.
The switches are:
T: Test the archive for CRC errors
L: List the file(s) in the archive
P: A pause between each archive
D: Deletes the archive(s) after unpacking it if no errors has occured
I: Identify archive file(s)
U: Unpack each archive in a directory named the same as the arhive file
but without the extension
V: Check for virus with all 3 virusscanner after unpacking
Vx: Check for virus with virus number x (1-3) after unpacking
E: Select file(s) to extract from archive
e=*.exe: Unpacks all *.EXE files in the archive
Examples:
MUP *.arj c:\tools => Will unpack all ARJ files to 'c:\tools'.
