UPX V3.00 Released

Recommended Posts

For those who use this EXE Packer, Version 3.00 has been released.

Here

Some of the new features (since the previous stable relaese V2.03) include

*LZMA is now also supported for 16-bit dos/exe. Use se new option '--lzma' to enable. Please note that you have to explicitly use '--lzma' even for '--ultra-brute' here because runtime decompression is about 30 times slower than NRV -

which is really noticeable on old machines.

* win32/pe & arm/pe: better icon compression handling

* new option '--ultra-brute' which tries even more variants

* slightly improved compression ratio for some files when using '--brute' or '--ultra-brute'

* new format: BSD/elf386 supporting FreeBSD, NetBSD and OpenBSD via auto-detection of PT_NOTE or EI_OSABI

* arm/pe: all the NRV compression methods are now supported (only NRV2D is missing in thumb mode)

* linux/elf386, linux/ElfAMD: remember /proc/self/exe in environment

* major source code changes: the runtime decompression stubs are now built from internal ELF objects

Sorry if its a repost, couldnt find it when i ran a search.

Does anyone know the command line switches for this program apart from the makers of the program? :blink:

How something so good can be so undocumented is just plain WRONG!

there is documentation included in the zip package you download. There is a TXT, DOC, and HTML file.

OUCH!

Now I feel really stupid! :blushing:

I have been using the command line program after pulling it out of

the downloaded package and never even thought once to check it. :blink:
