The backend for +the tool is a library, so that it can be reused for other purposes. Lhasa +aims to be compatible with as many types of lzh/lzs archives as +possible. It also aims to generate the same output as the (non-free) +Unix LHA tool, so that it will act as a drop-in free replacement. + +Note that lhasa is only for *decompressing*, not compressing/creating +archives. + +The binary is installed as /usr/bin/lhasa. If installing on a system that +doesn't already have Slackware's lha package, symlinks will be created +so lhasa can be called as /usr/bin/lha (and "man lha" will work). This +allows lhasa to replace Slackware's lha package, but doesn't conflict +if both are installed. -- cgit v1.2.3
