Anyone else having trouble with Lharc V1.20? I can't get it to work
except for the help message you get when you don't specify any
parameters. It comes up with what looks like an "invalid command"
message of some kind, but it ends up scrambling the returned status as
well as the command line. For instance, from an ADOS Shell:
1.Main:DownLoads> lharc t lharc120.lzh
yields:
1.Main:DownLoads> lharc t'lharc120.lzh
1.Main:DownLoads> mand '
I've downloaded it twice; first with zmodem and then with xmodem. I've
tested the archive and unpacked it using lharc V1.10 with no errors.
For kicks I even tried setting the pure bit and making it resident, but
still no luck. Comments anyone before I go the same route as <CB>?

Re: .1
Well, it looks like the old one, plain CLI interface. It's however
considerably faster and has many nice added features, like an
environment variable controlling default switches and it's ability to
be made resident.
Re: .2
I'll look into that. It works perfectly for me at home, but I have the
same problems here (I just re-downloaded it from TAPE:: and checked).
Maybe the archive got corrupt somewhere inbetween, although I used
ZModem all the time...
I'll upload a working version on monday, if I can't figure out today
what might cure/fix this problem...

3937.4 | Lharc 1.20 ~= Lharc 1.10 | FROCKY::BALZER | Christian Balzer DTN:785-1029 | Mon Jul 23 1990 03:51 | 13 |
| Re: .2, .3
It seems that Lharc 1.10 doesn't like 1.20 archives, at list not those
generated without any "compatibility switches".
Thus I generated a zoo archive (lharc120.zoo), uploaded it to TAPE::
and deleted the .lzh version.
I urge you folks to upgrade to 1.20, since all my Lharc archives and
probably those of other folks will use this version from now on...
Regards,
<CB>

3937.5 | Lharc V1.21 (bugfix) | CRISTA::CAPRICCIO | Fat: The *Natural* Insulator | Sun Sep 02 1990 05:12 | 19 |

Well, it looks as if the location zero problem could be the reason why
Lharc V1.20 would work on my A1000 but not on my A2000HD (A2091). The
latest release (V1.21) can be found at:
CRISTA""::AMIGA:LHARC121.LZH
From "Changes":
-Version 1.21 08-Aug-1990
No new feature in this version, just a few bug fixes
-Read-from-location-zero bug eliminated: now Lharc works even if
memory location zero (which usually contains a 0) as been altered.
-Now Lharc cretes archives with the correct name even if the part
of the path name referring to the device contains a period.
-It as been reported that Lharc 1.20 sometimes crashed while
reading corrupted archives: I could not reproduce the problem,
but it should be fixed in this version
