RNC ProPack 2.14

This is a mirror of Rob Northen Computing's (RNC) ProPack compression tool, which handles the RNC compression format created by Rob Northen in 1991.

This is the official RNC 2.14 package, containing a packer DOS binary and assembly decoding modules for several platforms.

For the manual, read PROPACK.DOC. I have also added a plain text version of the manual, PROPACK.TXT.

This is a GitHub repo. The package is also available elsewhere:

Jeff Frohwein's Game Boy website
Aminet (note that although this page claims it hosts v2.08, it's the exact same package as this)
