:run lzw

and it will display help information.


Assuming you uploaded ONLINE.LZW as FOO, you can unpack it via:

   :run lzw;info="-f FOO -r"

that will prompt you on a file-by-file basis for permission to extract
each file.   A "?" will then display the following help information:

  CR      restore file as "AAA.SOURCE.SIELER"
  newname restore file as "newname"
  *       restore file in logon group
  .group  restore file in specified group
  @       restore all remaining files as named
  @*      restore all remaining files in logon group
  @.group restore all remaining files in specified group
  //      skip this file
  ///     exit program
