A note about the future of ecsoft2.org

ecsoft2.org runs on software (Drupal 7 and PHP 7.4) that reached its end of life years ago and no longer receives security updates. Keeping the site online safely is getting harder.

Giving it a future means migrating it to a current platform — and that is only worth doing if people still use it and want to help keep it alive.

If you care about ecsoft2.org, as a user, a contributor, or someone willing to lend a hand, please ggambatiscali [dot] it (get in touch) by January 31, 2027.

If no one comes forward by then, the site will be turned into a read-only archive, so that its content stays available.

LH/2 v. 2.28 (LHArc V2.2.8; Y2K compliant, 30/10/2003, Peter Fitzsimmons)	Readme/What's new	LH/2 V2.28 release notes, Sat 10-25-2003 ----------------------------------------- Ten years since last update? I guess I don't get many bug reports :) The previous versions didn't support "y2k" dates politely (even though, in the end, they worked.) This version does. Also included (as lhw.exe) is a version that works for Win98+ I ported lh2 to win32 for a friend who complained that there were no "public domain" archivers out there. Lh32/lhw is public domain. If you need to contact me to confirm this (I'm in the midst of moving), try pfitz@rogers.com or 416-820-2966 I removed support for self-extraction from this drop; it was only for 16 bit os/2, which I doubt anyone is using anymore.
