Yep, there's a new algorithm out there.  It's a program called
"CRLZH11" which uses the new LZH algorithm for tighter packs.  I
can mail you a copy of the uncruncher, UCRLZH11.COM, which will not
only uncrunch LZH-encoded files, they can uncrunch GEL-encoded
files (?Z?), and unsqueeze Huffman-encoded files (?Q?).  Plus I
have a file that can extract files from a library, while, at the
same time, decompress them if they are compressed.  For anyone out
there, jus give the word, and I'll post the LBR uuencoded, so you
can pipe it to uudecode.
