Fix for the bug in xadmasters internal LhA client?
« on: February 24, 2018, 06:24:37 AM »
I noticed this thread over at EAB: http://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?t=90890

The reason for this problem is a bug in xadmasters internal LhA client, where spaces in file names will be converted to underscores upon extracting/listing lha archives created with LhA 2.15. What causes this is that LhA 2.15 by default uses level 1 file headers (other LhA versions use level 0), and the xadmaster system doesn't seem to handle this well.

I know that this bug was fixed for the OS4 xadmaster version, but did anybody ever fix it for the classic Amigas? If not, it would be really appriciated if someone with the knowledge of doing so, could do it.

xadmaster v13 would have been nice to have, but if it turns out to be impossible to compile it for 68k, maybe http://aminet.net/package/util/arc/xad_lha could be compiled instead?

Then we would at least have had a fixed lha client.
