Type:         util/arc
Architecture: ppc-powerup

This is a small portable powerpacker decruncher written in C,
for people who want to unpack powerpacker files on Unix machines
and others.

This code is NOT public domain. See the full README for copyright
information.

This is version 1.0. This archive does include a test file.

powerUP note:

 This archive is idential to misc/unix/ppunpack-1.0.tar.z,
 with the exception, that it additionally does include
 smakefile/SCOPTIONS and binaries for PPC systems (not actually
 unix, but a foreign kernel, too ;-)

 PPC binaries have the ".elf" extension and are useable from Shell
 when being used with ppc.library V46+

 Note:

  In the past, some guy called "SPH" took most of my free PPC ports
  (those where the sources have been included) and ported them to WOS.

  While I've nothing against WOS ports, an other point is very distasteful
  and unfair in my opinion: removing all references to my name and initials
  and simply replacing those with his own, while also removing all references
  to PPC-Lib/ELF and replacing those with WOS references and usually some flames
  or even offenses against the competing kernel and porter - without actually
  rewriting the readme text itself in a major way (for example, if I describe what
  *I* specifically did for the port - and what he didn't have to do a *second* time,
  of course - he does not even remove/change *those* notes and/or give me credit).

  This leads to the strange situation, that I hereby have to copyright this
  .readme text, to claim its authorship and forbid changes which aren't
  clearly marked as being changes to the original: While quotes may have
  been derived from other parts of the distribution, the whole .readme as
  such now is (C)opyrighted by Andreas R. Kleinert in 1998.

  Copyrights to the other files remain as such. Nevertheless I'd ask anyone
  to give me credit for the changes which I did myself and which of
  course have been labeled/marked/documented as such. Even free software
  lives from respecting the intellectual work and property of others. Thank you.
