   A while ago, I posted the following:

   There are also programs available which compress EXE and COM files using
the standard LZW method but leave them executable (i.e. when you load the
file in, some code added by the compressor will transparently uncompress
the file so the image in memory is identical, but the executable takes
less space on the disk).  I've seen references to one or two of these in
the catalogs of shareware/PD houses, and also PKWare has one that was in
beta testing a few months ago.

   If you have any experience with such programs, please SEND ME EMAIL
describing your experiences.  Any info would be appreciated.  I'll chew
on the information and post some form of summary to the net in a couple of
weeks.

   Here is the response I received:

I have used both LZEXE and PKLITE (Beta version), and never had
one of them corrupt a program.  PKLITE seems to compress the
files slightly (very slightly) more than LZEXE.
