COM-Pack library
From Just Solve the File Format Problem
- Not to be confused with COMPACK.
COM-Pack is a DOS utility developed by Jack A. Orman. It combines multiple small COM files into a single "library" COM file. The user can then execute the library file, with a command-line argument to tell it which of the original files to execute.
Extraction and execution of the original file is apparently done all in memory. COM-Pack doesn't seem to provide a way to recover the original files from a library.
