Looks good, but two comments ...

1). Shouldn't the help screen contain either a URL (e.g. http://www.bttr-software.de/) or at least your e-mail address?

2). What, no LFN support? Aren't there Pascal units around that can handle that? (At worst just use int 21h,7160h to convert LFN to SFN.)

Otherwise, good job, seems to handle all the various DOS/Win32 formats correctly (as far as I can tell, at least the ones I tested, not exhaustive by any means). Of course, if UPX itself can't handle it (D3X-stubbed, BinUtils, compressed Causeway stub + compressed Watcom/LE), then neither can yours.

> Trivia: UPXINFO.EXE has been compressed using aPACK, not UPX.

Outrageous!
