Talk:Executable compression
Appearance
Lzexe
The article should mention that "LZEXE" (written by some young kid in France nobody had ever heard of before) pretty much single-handedly invented this category of programs (at least as far as widespread use on microcomputers goes), leaving PKWARE and the others hurrying to catch up...

- Yes, Exe Packers and Executable compression should be merged -- they are synonoms. The Exe Packers article seems much better maintained and descriptive than does this one. --db90h 08:44, 12 December 2005 (UTC)

Would you be so kind to mention also applications which are able to detect these often bad used exepacker/compressors ? For example, see at http://www.z80eu/otherdelphi.html ... there is an application which is able to find these files in a generic way also. Please consider this. Thank you.
