Dear audience,

we are pleased to announce the next public beta release of our
new executable packer UPX. The Ultimate Packer for eXecutables
is a portable, extensible, high-performance executable packer for
several different executable formats. It achieves an excellent
compression ratio and offers *very* fast decompression.
                      
UPX can pack (and unpack) the following executable formats:
        dos/exe, dos/sys, dos/com, djgpp2/coff, watcom/le,
        win32/pe, rtm32/pe, tmt/adam and atari/tos

New in version 0.60:
        * added support for atari/tos, lots of bug fixes
          for win32/pe, improved compression ratio and time

New in version 0.61:
        * bug fixes

You can find UPX at:
        http://cdata.tvnet.hu/~ml/upx.html
        http://wildsau.idv.uni-linz.ac.at/mfx/upx.html

As we mentioned above this is a BETA TEST release, so DO NOT USE THIS
VERSION EXCEPT FOR TESTING. Only compress backups of your executables.
Also, please report all problems or suggestions to the authors. Thanks.

Spread and enjoy,
Laszlo & Markus
