Title: EXEPAK executable file compressor for Linux

Entered-date: 8-27-97
Description: EXEPAK compresses binaries but keeps them executable, like
the old DOS PKLITE program. Works on any Linux binary.
Archive includes source and 80x86/ELF binary. (There's
a memory/speed penalty of course :)

You will find it on any sunsite mirror in the utils/compress directory. It's
really fast and efficient, I do recommend it if you need such a thing.
