Ver:0.79a0 HPACK - Multi-System Archiver 1 May 1993
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
The HPACK Multi-System Archiver is an archiver that was written to
allow the transfer of archived data to different systems. In the past
archivers have traditionally been available for single systems only,
for example PKZIP(tm) and LHARC for the IBM PC, Larc for the Amiga,
StuffIt(tm) and Compactor for the Macintosh, and tar and compress for
UNIX systems (while these archivers are available on other systems,
their use is not widespread). It is intended to make HPACK a more
universal archiver by offering versions for the following
environments:
* Apple IIgs (planned)
* Archimedes
* Atari ST
* Commodore Amiga
* Microsoft Windows
* Macintosh
* MSDOS
* OS/2 (16 and 32-bit versions)
* OS/2 Presentation Manager (currently in development)
* Primos (planned)
* UNIX
* VMS (currently in development)
* Any other system which people offer to port it to
Currently Bavarian, Dutch, English, German, Italian, Polish, Spanish,
and Swiss German versions of HPACK using the ASCII, IBM PC, IBM
Codepage 850, IBM Codepage 869, ISO 8859-1 (Latin 1), ISO 8859-2
(Latin 2), ISO 8859-3 (Latin 3), ISO 8859-4 (Latin 4), Macintosh,
Mazovia, and NeXTSTEP character sets exist.
