ARC512

(1/1)

John Z:
Back in the day I was a heavy arc user.  So with ARC512 open sourced I was thinking to convert into 32 or 64 bit C so that I could recover some arc compressed files.  I may still do that but in looking around while tinkering with the sources I found this program which is a compressed file format converter.  Well - it worked well to convert my arc compressed files into zip compressed files!  It seems to handle many formats although I've only tried arc.

It is from sourceforge - but no sources are included .... My GData antivirus scanned it ok.

Hi John,

Here is also the FreeArc project :

https://sourceforge.net/projects/freearc/

John Z:
Thanks Vortex.

I think I looked at that one. It does not mention support for the .arc format.
Since you mention it though I’ll download and try anyway.

Update:

Tried it today - It does not recognize the .arc format.
