- LHdir Version 1.3 5/89
- Copyright 1989 D & D Software Inc.

- Tested with all U.S. versions of LHarc through 1.13.
-
- LHdir is a utility program to be used in conjunction with the LHarc file
- compression program. It has three purposes, depending on how its used.
-
- 1) As a directory utility. Just like LHarc you can see the names and
- sizes of files inside a LZH file. Some example commands:
- LHDIR ABC.LZH
- LHDIR ABC
- LHDIR ABC *.TXT *.EXE
-
- Unlike LHarc, you can also see what's inside a self-extracting COM or
- EXE file created by LHarc. This requires that the file you are looking
- at be completely specified on the command line.
- LHDIR ABC.EXE
- LHDIR ABC.EXE *.TXT
-
- 2) As a converter of self-extracting to normal LZH files. If the file
- is self-extracting, you will be asked if you wish to convert it to a
- normal LZH file after viewing the directory. Answering 'Y' will create
- a second file with the LZH extant and retain the original EXE or COM
- file, should you wish to use it for other purposes.
-
- 3) As a scanner for self-extracting LHarc files you may have lost track
- of. If invoked as "LHDIR -S", the program will scan all EXE and COM
- files in the current directory (limited to 300 COM and 300 EXE files)
- and tell you which, if any, are really LHarc self-extracting files.
-
- In the same spirit Yoshi has shown with LHarc, LHdir is free and may be
- copied and distributed without fee, so long as the original copyright
- notice remains intact and this doc file accompanies the program.
-
- This program is distributed "as is" and no warranty of any kind is
- expressed or implied.
