What is Diet?
-------------
DIET.EXE reduces the disk-storage space needed by executable and data
files
WITHOUT giving up immediate access to such files.  DIET is a Freeware
Program.

  (a)   When DIET compresses an EXECUTABLE file (.EXE or .COM),
        it adds a header that automatically expands the file when
        it is executed.

  (b)   On average, DIET reduces the size of .EXE & .COM files
        by 40%.

  (c)   Self-expansion of DIETed .EXE & .COM files is so fast
        that it is difficult to measure the change in the speed
        of file execution.  You certainly won't notice any
        change.

  (d)   DIET's self-expansion of .EXE and .COM files is similar
        to PKLITE or LZEXE, except that DIET also lets you com-
        press overlay files -- something that PKLITE and LZEXE
        cannot do.

How did I use it?
-----------------
I used it along with UNP to undo the EXEPACK compression algorithm used
by Bob on various APRSDos programs so I could recompress them using Diet. 
Diet is more efficient than EXEPACK and the resulting EXE files are much
smaller.
