2LZH is a small program that takes care of converting ZIP, ARC,
or PAK files to lzarc format.
Lzarc is rapiedly gaining a cult following due to its VERY tiny
archives.
2LZH.EXE uses the following programs and they should be found in
one of your Dos path directories.
Pkxarc.exe(or com) : Used to extract all *.Arc files.
Pak.exe : Used to extract all *.PAK files.
Pkunzip.exe : Used to extract all *.Zip files.
Lharc.exe : Used to place extracted files in LZH format.
We release this program for public use. We do not howevery,
except any responsablity for loss of files, drive damage (well
not bloody likely but never can be to safe), or anything else.
You use it at your own risk.
Nothing special about running 2lzh. Just log into the directory
you want to convert and type "2lzh" press return and watch it
work.
If your running Lynx, you'll find another handy little program
included in this archive caller flipper.exe. It's used to
convert your files.qbs listing over so that all programs that
end with .pak, .arc, or .zip so they will have a NEW extension
of .lzh. After you run 2LZH in one of your download directories,
follow it up with a run of flipper. Makes for converting your
BBS to the newer archive format a breeze.
To run Flipper, you need to give it two command line switchs.
The first is the name of your file list, in most cases
Files.qbs
The second is the name of the extension you want to convert to,
ie LZH
Example: Flipper files.qbs Lzh
or
Flipper IBMTXT.QBS LZH, if you happen to be using logical file
areas.
Enjoy and I hope Lharc will save you a TON of diskspace.
