.lzh files?

[-Fred-]

what exactly is that? what do i need to open this kind of file? i came across a picture on a japanese website of this kind of file... lzh...

lzh is just another compression format (like .zip .rar) its quite an old format. I remember using it on my amiga (but I have come across it occasionally on pc)

You can use winrar or winace to open these files. I dunno about winzip because I dont like winzip`s interface.

WinZip will open these files. LZH is the surname-initials of the three creators, Lempel, Ziv, Huffman.

oh, that's great! i thought it was some sort of bizzare file format no one ever heard about...

I've never been able to succesfully decompress an .lzh file.

This will tell you probably more than you want to know about .lzh
