A new version of the atool package is now available in the Cygwin distribution.

Changes in this release:
* New upstream release: adds lzma support.

About atool:

atool is a script for managing file archives of various types (tar, tar+gzip,
zip, bzip2, rar, 7zip, ...).  atool is called under several names:

* aunpack extracts files from an archive. It overcomes the dreaded
"multiple files in archive root" problem by first extracting to a
unique subdirectory, and then moving back the files if possible.
aunpack also prevents local files from being overwritten by mistake.

* apack creates archives.

* als lists files in archives.

* acat extracts files to standard out.

* adiff generates a diff between archives.

* arepack converts between archive formats.

The following man pages in /usr/share/man/man1:

apack.1.gz
arepack.1.gz
aunpack.1.gz
acat.1.gz
adiff.1.gz
als.1.gz

give the following errors, for example:

man adiff

gzip: /usr/share/man/man1/adiff.1.gz: not in gzip format
fgets: No such file or directory
Error reading man page /usr/share/man/man1/adiff.1.gz
No manual entry for adiff

Ciao
  Volker

aware of that problem and have a new package imminent.  A.
