Short: Compressing reloc32 to reloc32short Author: tbaust@gmx.net Uploader: tbaust gmx net Type: dev/misc Version: 1.5a Replaces: dev/misc/HunkShort*.lha Requires: Kick 2.0+ Architecture: m68k-amigaos This programm compresses the reloctable of any executeables, libs, devices and all codesegments. Started with this version (1.5) of the programm the hunk will be splitted when it was greater then 64kByte, this makes possible to convert greater programms too. The idea is very simple, the kickstart 2.0 and higher have a enhanced LoadSeg() funktion (Hunk_reloc32short), this makes it possible to compress the reloc hunk`s (without modify the programmcode self !!!). HunkShort history sience version 1.4: 1.5 (29.Oct.97) *ADDED OS3 generates $3FC hunk`s *ADDED nodebug don`t strip debug-hunks (DeluxePaint saves the userdata in this hunk) *FIXED savereqester can`t cancel *ADDED better dos output *ADDED Reloc32 converts the file backward (reloc32short --> reloc32) *FIXED $3E8 Hunk returns with "Unknown hunkerror" !!! *ADDED when the reloc greater then $ffff the hunk will be "splitted" *ADDED with HunkName can choice to strip Hunk_name or not 1.5 (02.Nov.97) *FIXED when length of a relochunk zero, generates illegal datas ============================= Archive contents ============================= Original Packed Ratio Date Time Name -------- ------- ----- --------- -------- ------------- 2540 1711 32.6% 02-Nov-97 19:05:02 HunkShort 30741 11423 62.8% 02-Nov-97 15:43:58 HunkShort.guide 1843 965 47.6% 24-Mar-97 00:38:44 HunkShort.guide.info -------- ------- ----- --------- -------- 35124 14099 59.8% 02-Nov-97 19:10:26 3 files
