What is it:
===========

  CompSys is an toolbox for examining compressed files.
  Using it, you can look into compressed files for the contained
  filenames, check for security envelopes (if available) check out
  selfextractors and even a Mac compressed fileformat!

  I wrote two of these systems before, but was never really satisfied.
  This version is the first one for which I feel confident enough to
  release it as shareware.

  But before we go into details, here's an overview of the compressors
  that CompSys can handle:


  Compressor  | Recognised | SelfExtr.| Sec.Env.| FileExtra field

ICE        (1)|   YES      |   YES    | N/A     |
RAR           |   YES      |   YES    | YES     | Locked, Solid,
              |            |          |         | Authenticity info
              |            |          |         |
SIT        (2)|   YES      |   N/A    | N/A     | MacBin info



  (1) As ICE was a hack of LHarc I guess the LHarc code can handle
      these files too..
  (2) MacIntosch StuffIt format
