Help.. I guess I missed something awhile back. ? How do you get a file with
".EXE " to run. I spent awhile and a few $$ downloadning some postscript files.
When I tried to decompress them with the LHA programs I have, A message came up
for me to get a newer version. So I went back on to download LHA213.EXE form
one of the libraries. However, I cant figure out how to get this "SELF
EXTRACTING" file to extract itself. Could someone guide me. Like I said, I must
have missed something along the way. I am using an AMIGA 3000 with 2.05 DOS.

Lowell,
LHA213.EXE is an MS-DOS program, which is why it won't run on your Amiga.
The file you need to unpack .LHA programs is LHA138.RUN, which is in Libary 16
of this forum.
Once you download it, copy it to a temporary directory, make that directory
your current directory (in a CLI or Shell), and type the command "lha138.run"
— it will than unpack itself, yielding the utility program "lha" and the
documentation file.
Hope this helps….
