Haruyasu Yoshizaki (aka Yoshi) can be reached at:

    Dr. Haruyasu Yoshizaki, Obihiro Kyokai Hospital,
    Higashi 4-jo Minami 12, Obihiro 080 Japan

By the way, the basic algorithm of LHA is in my public-domain pre-LHA
experimental archiver ar002 (which I wrote when I was a high-school
teacher).  It's in CompuServe's IBMPRO Library and also on the disk
accompanying Mark Nelson's The Data Compression Book (M&T Books,
1991).

If you happen to have ar002, please replace line 24 of maketbl.c

    while (i <= 16) weight[i++] = 1U << (16 - i);

by these three lines:

    while (i <= 16) {
        weight[i] = 1U << (16 - i);  i++;
    }
