I didn't have the latest HIMEMX mirrored on Ibiblio, so I just grabbed
the copies you have. I checked the file contents, and they have been
touched since the original. For example, 3.38
(https://github.com/Baron-von-Riedesel/HimemX/releases) was released
Nov 21, 2022 and has file contents like this:

$ unzip -l HimemX338.zip
Archive:  HimemX338.zip
  Length      Date    Time    Name
---------  ---------- -----   ----
     6056  11-21-2022 13:01   HimemX.exe

It looks like you modify the zip files when you mirror them. Your
version looks like this:

$ unzip -l 3.38/himemx338.zip
Archive:  3.38/himemx338.zip

(You sent your message on 9/23, so that explains the dates.)

Are you folding the source code into the "exe" zip file to create a package?


At least for the mirrored files on Ibiblio, I prefer to keep the files
as provided by the developer (Jerome creates packages, but the Files
Archive section is a straight mirror.) So I'll re-mirror the original
releases from GitHub.
