(Sorry if this is a duplicate)

For about a month now LHA v.2.11 (the successor to LHarc 1.13c) is available
as both .EXE and source code for MS-DOS.
Has somebody started a port to the ST already? Since a number of assembler
modules is involved I suspect it's not straight forward.

LHA211 gives about 10% (?) better compression ratios than LHarc113, is faster
(in decompressing), upward compatible, but needs more memory.
