- Short: Extracts .readme and comments Archives, v1.01
- Author: Manuel Giorgini (mgiorgin@dsi.unive.it)
- Uploader: Manuel Giorgini (mgiorgin@dsi.unive.it)
- Type: util/arc
- Version: 1.01
- Replaces: util/cli/deaf1*
-
- DEAF will scan an archive, extract the description from inside it, and link it
- as a comment for that file. Suppose you have downloaded "foo.lha" and you have
- noticed that it contains "foo.readme": DEAF will get the "Short:" line from
- foov103.readme (or whatever line else) and will put it as a filenote on "foo.lha"
- (without the header "Short:" and blanks).
-
- DEAF will recognize LHA, LZX and ZIP archives, and will operate successfully
- with all of them, provided you have LhA, LZX and UnZip in your path (this is
- extremely important!); evaluation versions are OK too. Arj is not supported
- simply because it would have taken a whole different algorithm to work.

- History:
-
- v 1.00 - first version
