[comp.os.cpm] How to decompress "*.?Y?" files?

wittig@GMDZI.GMD.DE (Georg Wittig) (06/11/91)

Hello,

I'm looking for the source code (C or Pascal) of a program that can
decompress those ``*.?Y?'' files. I couldn't find such a file on SIMTEL20.

Note, I'm not looking for a ``*.COM'' file that does it (I do have that),
but for a source code file.

Thanks in advance for your help. Yours,

Servus Georg.
I've seen this msg a couple of times now but no reply (am I wrong - was
off terminal a while). Perhaps the only solution is that you disassemble
your decompressor program and find out what is going on.
I've been told that it (some) is written in C, so a disassembling might
cause just a triffle of a problem. In any case I'd like to know how it's
done too.
Maybe, if I got the time I can try to disassemble my GEL Uncruncher v2.6
before you...
So long for now.
