lbrate extracts/decompresses files from LBR archives. (It can also
list and test them.) It does this in an unzip-like manner, mostly
hiding the details of individually compressed and renamed files, and
transparently deals with any required decompression/renaming.

It can also decompress individual squeezed, crunched, etc. files
directly, treating them as if they were really single-member LBRs.

The web page is here:

Version 1.2 fixes an erroneous memory allocation attempt with corrupt
files. (The fix was ported from nomarch 1.5.)

Thanks for the update. I've been using lbrate for a while now and it's a handy tool for my CP/M work. Compiles and works for both Linux and Mac systems, too.

Thanks. It's a minimal change, but having (finally) noticed this
problem I figured I should sort it out like I did for nomarch.

One amusing point was when I realised I ought to test all the Walnut
Creek CP/M CD's LBR files like I did before, just as a basic check
things were fine - even if that would clearly take a while to run.
Except that it's not 2001 any more, so it took under a minute. :-)
