- Reduce executable size using compression
- .description
- The Imploder allows you to reduce the size of executable files while
- having them retain their full functionality. There are other
- "crunchers" or "packers" available for the Amiga, but none are as
- mindful of the complexities of your Amiga system as the Imploder
- (IMHO). In addition to this, its algorithms are more efficient, both
- in terms of speed, and size reduction.
-
- The FInf drawer contains a versatile directory lister and file type
- recognizer. This one is bursting with options, many of which are
- sorely needed but not present in any of the other listing utilities I
- know of. Of course it recognizes whether files are Imploded or not.
-
- The DImp drawer contains a disk-archiver that makes use of the
- Implosion algorithm. Special features include the creation of self
- extracting and explaining disk archives, support for any device with a
- floppy like track layout, and the flexible selection of cylinder
- ranges.
