- This package is 32 bit RAR version for DOS and OS/2. Unlike 16 bit
- RAR/DOS it is able to create archives using dictionaries larger
- than 64KB. This version is the command line only, full screen interface
- is not supported. It works under OS/2 as native OS/2 application
- handling long names and extended attributes. It also understands
- long file names in Windows DOS box (except Windows NT), but it is
- strongly recommended to use the native Win32 console rar.exe from
- WinRAR package under Windows, which is more reliable and has better
- performance in Win32 environment.
