If you happen to know about when the version that you want came out, folks could check their old cover disks.  ;)  Guestimate?

thanks all. I'm trying to re-create lha archive, but unfortunately, none of the above versions produce desired result. packed file always has a byte or two less or more.
oh, well.
Better sorry than worry.

Are you absolutely sure that the file you are packing is 100% exactly the same as the original you're trying to reproduce?  All sorts of simple things could cause a 1 byte discrepancy.

yes, I'm sure, all .lha have same original file CRC and size. they also all use -lh5-.
are there any command switches that could cause it? hardware config? KS version?

There's a header level switch.

thanks, but that only affects header, not the compressed data size.

Sorry, I thought you meant the final archive was different by a few bytes, not the individual compressed files.  I'm not sure how the calculations work but it could make a difference.

I've made some progress, using -Qh switch (huffman buffer size), unfortunately lha v2.12 seems to ignore it, so I used good-old v1.38.

thanks all.

As already suggest I'd go to AmiNet and their =misc/fish&content=lha&sort=desc]Fred Fish Disk archive. When looking for specific (especially older) versions of libs or such it's a good source. Checking the index they covered LhA v1.0 on disk 577, v1.11 on disk 593, 1.22 on disk 637 and 1.32 on disk 715.

You're sure it's not archived using LHArc format (lha -0)?
