DLD 1.6
============================================================
FREEWARE © 1992,1993 by Georg Hörmann
All rights reserved.
DLD requires Kickstart 2.0!
You need arp.library to run DLD with Kickstart 1.3!
============================================================
What is DLD?
============================================================
DLD is the utility you were waiting for so long. It makes
it possible to decrunch almost every packed file. This is
especially useful for packers that don't have a decruncher
themselves.
============================================================
How to use DLD?
============================================================
Nothing more easy than that! Copy the required libraries
to your libs: drawer and everything is ready for the first
attempts. DLD's Shell template looks like follows:
SOURCE,DEST,LIST/S:
SOURCE - Crunched file you want to have decrunched. If LIST
is specified, this is the name of the directory to
be listed (LIST uses current path if SOURCE is not
specified).
DEST - If specified, the decrunched data will be saved to
this file, if not specified, the sourcefile will be
overwritten. DEST will be ignored if LIST is used.
LIST - If LIST is specified, DLD will print the contents
of the directory specified with SOURCE. Every file
is checked for crunchers. You'll get a listing of
the following format:
filename length cruncher
e.g. testfile1 12345678 PowerPacker 3.0
testfile2 87654321 not crunched
If you do not specify any parameters, DLD will print a
short help page with a rough overview of functions. Do not
run DLD from workbench, it is a shell command.
============================================================
It doesn't decrunch my programs!!
============================================================
There can be several reasons (although every error causes
a little message, some people will never understand it):
a) The file is not crunched.
b) The file is crunched with an unknown cruncher.
c) The file is defect.
d) You don't have enough memory to decrunch the file.
e) You try to run DLD on Kickstart 1.3 without arp.library!
f) You have not copied decrunch.library to your libs drawer.
g) etc.
============================================================
How and why can I contact the author?
============================================================

bug reports or new ideas for DLD, write to:
