UHIC
From Just Solve the File Format Problem
UHIC is a special-purpose file compression utility for DOS. It compresses only certain types of BMP, TGA, and Sun Raster graphics files. It was developed by Uwe Herklotz.
Format details
(Based on educated guesswork.)
The first three bytes are the ASCII signature "UHI".
The fourth byte is a version number: 0x10 for v1.0, or 0x20 for v2.0.
The fifth byte is a code for the original file format, and compression level:
0 = Windows BMPv3 1 = Windows BMPv3, max compression 2 = Windows BMPv2 3 = Windows BMPv2, max compression 4 = Sun Raster 5 = Sun Raster, max compression 6 = TGA 7 = TGA, max compression
