LHA/LZH

LHA is one of the oldest compression utilities and file types going back all the way to the late 80s. The software and file format were developed by Haruyasu Yoshizaki.

The original old LHA/LZH archive software utility was called LHArc and ran on the old DOS enviornment.

LHA is hardly used anymore and is mostly needed for legacy data files or software.
