Lxlt121.Zip                     06-07-97         393,453
    LXLITE
    This is a free OS/2 compression program which can be used to decrease
    the size of .EXE, .DLL (and other files).  Compression of .EXE files of
    60% is common, although the highest compression will result in programs
    that can't be used on OS/2 versions prior to Warp.  Its command line
    driven (thank GOD!) and fairly simple as in most cases the defaults can
    be used.  The latest version I have seen is "LXLT121.ZIP" (version
    1.2.1), and as it is so hard to find I have provided a copy.
    In rare cases I have seen it produce .EXE files which fail to run.  You
    would have to assume that its also possible to produce faulty ones that
    run.  So I suggest testing of any changes before being used on critical
    systems and if you have seen "weird" occurrances, try the product again
    (without being compressed to help isolate the cause).
    Note that there is also an IBM tool called REPACK which also packs file
    although its not as easy to use and does not compress as well.
