COMPACK is a powerful program compactor producing the fastest and smallest
EXE and COM files compared with EXEPACK, LZEXE, PKLITE, DIET
etc.
COMPACK can also compact most loadable device drivers (such as
VDISK.SYS) and also the BIOS files IBMBIO.COM or IO.SYS.
COMPACK can create self extracting files (SFXs, like this one executing
now!), allowing any data files, not just programs, to be COMPACKted.
These SFX programs are usually smaller (?) and much faster
(?) than equivalents produced by PKZip 1.10, LHARC 1.13, ARJ 2.10 etc. In addition to
performance advantages, SFX programs can run on single diskette systems simplifying installation procedures for software
distributors.
