  1. Features
 -------------
      The public version of UNACE is limited in its functionallity:

        * no EMS/XMS support
        * decompression dictionary limited by the target system;
            this means that the 16bit version has a maximum of 32k only
        * no decryption
        * no wildcard-handling


  2. Platform compability
 -------------------------
      This source has been tested as 16bit and 32bit MS-DOS,
      16bit and 32bit Windows (character mode)
      and 32bit Amiga executable.

      If you have any suggestions to make it more compatible for
      other platforms tell me please:

  3. Compiling
 --------------
      To get UNACE.EXE use one of the supplied make files.

      Choose a 32bit target if possible. Otherwhise there might be not enough
      memory to decompress archives with dictionaries larger than 32kb.

      A lot of thanks to Wilfred van Velzen <wilfred@aobh.xs4all.nl> for
      porting UNACE to the Amiga and setting up the basic elements for
      general portability this way.
