Fabrice Bellard has released the original 1990 source code for LZEXE v0.91 under the MIT license.
LZEXE is a DOS executable compressor with its core logic in x86 assembly and a Pascal frontend.
The newly released source can be compared to existing compressor binaries to match the behavior seen in Sonic game data.
This release provides source for two of the four KENS format compressors, while the Enigma and Nemesis compressor sources remain unavailable.
