On 08 August 2012 I finished my 32-bit DOS build of Stuart Caie's Cabextract version 1.4 using Open Watcom C/C++ version 1.9. 
 
Binaries, user manuals in ASCII format, and fully configured sources plus some simple instructions on how to rebuild are available at http://www.bttr-software.de/ports/. 
 
Changes from my last port (1.2) to 1.4: 
* A bug in the LZX decompressor was fixed. 
* cabextract is now more tolerant when processing cabinet sets. 
* cabextract is now compatible with even more compilers, and now supports 64-bit file I/O on platforms where it's completely native, like Mac OS X 10.6 and Fedora x86_64. 
* cabextract will no longer print "library not compiled to support large files" while reading small files. 
* The Windows CE installation format document was improved. 
* Bugs in the MS-ZIP and Quantum decompressors have been fixed. 
* MS-ZIP recovery has been improved. 
* cabextract should now compile with MinGW --- Forum admin  |
