Hi All!
Upx 0.81, an executable file packer for djgpp2 (& linux/i386 & win32/pe
& dos/exe &...) programs is available at:
http://www.nexus.hu/upx
http://wildsau.idv.uni-linz.ac.at/mfx/upx.html
Changes in 0.81 (04 Aug 1999)
* win32/pe: fixed an important bug in import handling
* dos/com: fixed an internal error that could happen with very small files
Changes in 0.80 (03 Aug 1999)
* you can set some default options in the environment var `UPX'
* dos/com: the decompressor stub now checks for enough free memory
* dos/exe: decompressor rewritten, some bugs are fixed
* dos/exe: new option `--no-reloc': no relocation data is put into
the DOS header
* tmt/adam: added support for more stubs, detect already packed files
* tmt/adam: new option `--copy-overlay'
* wc/le: reduced memory requirement during uncompression (<= 8Kbytes)
* wc/le: support files which do not contain their stack in the last object
* wc/le: fixed a bug which could cause a crash, improved relocation
handling
* wc/le: new option `--copy-overlay'
* win32/pe: `--compress-icons=2' is now the default
* win32/pe: even better TLS support
* win32/pe: versioninfo works on NT
* win32/pe: import by ordinal from kernel32.dll works
* win32/pe: other import improvements: importing a nonexistant DLL
results in a usual Windows message, importing a nonexistant function
results in program exit (instead of crash ;-)
* win32/pe: new option: `--compress-resources=0'
* win32/pe: reduced memory requirement during uncompression, some
files might even require LESS memory when they're compressed
* win32/pe: TYPELIBs should work now
* win32/pe: improved relocation handling, 16 bit relocations should work
* win32/pe: new option `--strip-relocs' (only if you know what you are doing)
* win32/pe: new option `--copy-overlay'
* important internal changes: now the stubs are built at runtime
Spread & enjoy,
Laszlo & Markus
