   Hello Stephen!   
      
   Thank you for your reply!

   Sorry -- I should have mentioned -- the problems (lack of archive creation   
   support) are when using the Debian-packaged version of lha -- lhasa:   
      
   root@glimmer:~# apt-cache show lhasa   
   Package: lhasa   
   Version: 0.3.1-3   
   Installed-Size: 46   
   Maintainer: Jonathan Dowland    
   Architecture: amd64   
   Provides: lha, lzh-archiver   
   Depends: libc6 (>= 2.4), liblhasa0 (= 0.3.1-3)   
   Conflicts: lha (<< 1.14i-10.4)   
   Description-en: lzh archive decompressor   
    Lhasa lha is a tool for parsing LHA (.lzh) archives and a free   
    replacement for the Unix LHA tool.   
    .   
    Currently it is only possible to read from (ie. decompress) archives;   
    generating (compressing) LHA archives may be an enhancement for future   
    versions. The aim is to be compatible with as many different variants   
    of the LHA file format as possible, including LArc (.lzs) and   
    PMarc (.pma).   
    .   
    The command line tool aims to be interface-compatible with the non-free   
    Unix LHA tool (command line syntax and output), for backwards   
    compatibility with tools that expect particular output.

   But you're right -- for those running "LHa for UNIX" (https://gi   
   hub.com/jca02266/lha), the Pack Cmds should be there. Thanks!   
      
   Best regards
