Dear Friends, How are you doing?
At random, I was watching a youtube video on password cracking of dos games (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JMz_PYnpJPY) and I found unp (http://unp.bencastricum.nl) Maybe we could ask the author if he could add an open-source license so we can add on FreeDOS? "What the ... is UNP? Yeah.. good question... If you start it, it's first line will tell you it's an "Executable file restore utility". And I guess that is exactly what it was when I started it. When I started UNP it was written to be able to decompress (restore) all kinds of compressed executable files (for MS-DOS that is). What is UNP capable of? As explained in the previous section, UNP is able to decompress executable files. But while developing it, I found the need for additional features which I implemented as well. UNP is now capable of doing much and much more to your file than just decompression: - Convert your executable file from a .COM to a .EXE structure and vice versa. - Insert small files (comments for example) into .EXE file's headers. - Remove an overlay from an .EXE file. - Copy just the overlay from an .EXE file to another file. - Merge overlays into your image (.EXE files only) . - Optimize and shrink your .EXE file by removing useless data from the header. - Increase your header's size to a multiple of 512 (some claim that this causes the program to be loaded faster). - Optimize relocations items (makes the program hdropt from pkware obsolete). What routines can UNP remove?
