DJP is an executable compression utility. It compresses DJGPP-compiled 32-bit DOS EXE files. It is credited to "ML1050" (contact: Laszlo Molnar).

Identification

More research is needed. Compressed files are observed to have an identification string similar to "DJP 1.04", "DJP 1.05", or "DJP 1.07" embedded somewhere in them. Note that the software has several options that may affect the compressed file.
