I have not publicly released it (but have released it privately to those
that have asked for it) because it is a real hack.

All I did was rename main() to DllMain() -- you still have to call it with
a "char **argv, int argc",  and it provides no feedback to the
calling program except for a success/error code and whatever is sent to
stdout.

The source code for the -lh1- and -lh5- compression is freely available.


  AR002.LZH    ( 23)ansi-c source for -lh5- compression.

I can't remember the original name of the C source for -lh1- (lha.exe was
written mostly in *.asm),  but it probably doesn't matter because -lh5- is
better.
