lzmaLoader 1.2 has been released. lzmaLoader is a simple executable packer for MorphOS. It is mainly targeted for cases where extremely small executable file size is required (scene intros mostly).

Version 1.2 adds a hand optimized 380 byte shared loader which can be used when the compressed binary targets MorphOS 2.5 (or newer) systems.
