***************** UnLha *****************

This is a simple but effective (for me anyway) way of listing or extracting
.lha  files.   I  was bored, and was fedup with opening a Shell everytime I
wanted to extract or list a lha(ed) archive.  So I thought why not make use
of three great programs to make life just that bit easier.  So I did.

Don't  get  all  worked up, its only a script file.  I don't do programming
for fun, only when its a Uni-project or somebody FORCES it on me.  If I get
REALLY  bored  I  might write it again in C and make it a bit more friendly
and  make it understand more than just .lha files.  But I wouldn't count on
it :-).

This  program(?)  is fully PD, and you can even change it and call it yours
if  you  want.  I just thought somebody out there might need something like
it.  BUT THE (C) RIGHTS STAND ON THE GetFile AND ReqAsk BY Magnus Holmgren.

              **************** How it works ****************
OPTION 1:

	Its pretty simple to use.  All you need to do is put the file some
	where (S:  is a good place) and tell ToolManager where to find it.
	It could be used as a DOCK  or APPICON or if you are really brave,
	you could use it via shell.

	When you place an icon (see Foot Note 1) on it, it asks you if you
	want to list the archive or extract it to its  default destination
	RAM.  If you select List, it will open a CON:  window and list the
	chosen archive and waits for you to close the window.   WShell/CNC
	users can obviously use the  scrollbar  to scroll back and see the
	beging.

	If  you  selected  the  extract  option,  it  extracts the archives
	contents  to  RAM,  and  I  made it get rid of all those NASTY/CRAP
	.displayme  files  that  annoy  the  Shit  out of me.  For some odd
        reason  it doesn't display them anyway, but they still sit there in
        the RAM.

OPTION 2:

	If  you just click on the APPICON, or the DOCK icon it will use the
	wonderful  program  GetFile  to  get  the  archived  file  and  the
	extracting destination from you, and the rest is history.

	It  has a few odd messages that pop up when its finished extracting
	or  if you didn't select a file etc etc.  But basically it the same
	as OPTION 1.

	Foot Not 1: lha files don't usualy (never  really) have icons,  so
	            when I say drag its icon, I really mean use the Window
		    menu on workbench and select Show all.

       **************** Operation and requierments ****************

-  It obviously needs KS/WB 2.0 or Higher.
-  It  needs  GetFile and ReqAsk (by Magnus Holmgren) which are included in
this archive.
- And it would help if you had Toolmanager (by Stefan Becker) :-)
-  Its  looks  a  lot  better  if  you  use ReqChange (again by Magnus) and
Reqtools.library  (the  newer  the  better  i.e.   V  38.1002)  by  Mr.Nico
"ReqTools" Nico François.

I'm not responsible for any damadge that Unlha.Script does but it shouldn't
really (fingers crossed). Its only a shell-script for gods sake.

Anyway  if  you  have  any problems with it, give me a ring and we'll laugh
about it.
