             *** Important note about this port ***

The Amiga fileflags are not supported in this port, so for example,
if you pack an exe file, you have to set the 'e' flag when you depack
it - like this "protect my.exe +e". The sources are included so if you
want to add support for Amiga file flags - be my guest. /spot
