The sources for a unix lharc is available on xanth.cs.odu.edu,
and it is compatible to the amiga lharc. I am not familiar with ST
Lharc, sorry.

Anyway, you can get the file lzhuf.c from that archive, which contains
the compression method (compatible with all lharc implementations.)
It is compilable by itself on unix using GCC, and it creates a
stand-alone compressor, like COMPRESS(1).
