LhTest V1.00
Copyright © 1990 By Stefan Boberg
Original 80x86 LZHuf compression code by Haruyasu Yoshizaki
Amiga/680x0 translation by Stefan Boberg
===========================================================================
INTRODUCTION
LhTest's only purpose is to check an archives (LhArc type) integrity. That
is, to check that a file has been correctly compressed/transmitted. The
syntax is:
LhTest [t] <archive name[.lzh]>
One way to use it is together with the AmiExpress BBS program, to get this
to work with current versions of AmiExpress you'll have to some patching:
Locate where in the file the 'LhArc ' string is (in the main program called
'Express' , change this to 'LhTest'. Then locate where the '-n t ' string is,
then fill this with spaces or change it to ' t ', and you're finished!!
Of course you'll have to place LhTest in your c: directory too!!!
WHY?
LhArc already contains a command to check an archive's integrity, but since
it is so slow I decided to write a stand-alone program to do this. LhTest
is TWICE as fast as LhArc is at testing archives!!!!
If the archive is not Ok, LhTest terminates with a return code of 20, if it
is Ok, the return code is 0.
LhTest is PURE! This means you can make the program resident (WShell
'resi' command, ARP-Shell 'ares' or Commodore's 'resident' command will do
the job)
