UNARC is CP/M 2.x+ utility which lists, types and extracts files in
MS-DOS archive libraries (*.ARC files). NOW SUPPORTS A VERSION FOR
NON-Z80 SYSTEMS. Version 1.2 also provides wheel byte support for
simplified use by RCPM sysops. Library includes assembly language
source. For minimum download, extract just UNARC.DOC and UNARC.COM
(Z80) or UNARCA.COM (8080/8085). UNARC12.LBR is 102k, 816 records.
More information on new version:
* Provides an alternate version for use on non-Z80 systems. Now all CP/M
users can access archive files! (See note below.)
* Provides wheel byte support for easier use by RCPM sysops (see note).
* Aligns file types in directory listing for improved readability.
* Permits processing of "self-unpacking" archives (e.g. MS-DOS ARC512.COM).
* Attempts to recover from "invalid archive file format" errors in a manner
compatible with MS-DOS ARC 5.12.
