UPX 3.08 with ExPress GUI ( Lucid 528-005 )

This should work on all Puppy's I hope as it only consists of two executables that end up in:
/usr/bin/

UPX achieves an excellent compression ratio and offers very fast decompression. Your executables suffer no memory overhead or other drawbacks for most of the formats supported, because of in-place decompression. UPX strengths in a nutshell:
■excellent compression ratio: typically compresses better than WinZip/zip/gzip, use UPX to decrease the size of your distribution!
■very fast decompression: ~10 MB/sec on an ancient Pentium 133, ~200 MB/sec on an Athlon XP 2000+.
■no memory overhead for your compressed executables because of in-place decompression.
■safe: you can list, test and unpack your executables. Also, a checksum of both the compressed and uncompressed file is maintained internally.
■universal: UPX can pack a number of executable formats.
■portable: UPX is written in portable endian-neutral C++.
■extendable: because of the class layout it's very easy to add new executable formats or new compression algorithms.
■free: UPX is distributed with full source code under the GNU General Public License v2+, with special exceptions granting the free usage for commercial programs as stated in the UPX License Agreement.
