lrc (The Linux Resource Compiler) is a system for packing many files into a single file for installation and use in a program as its resources (such as the graphics and sounds used by a game). It consists of a command-line tool, called lrc, for compiling the resources and a library, called liblrc, to extract the resources from a file generated by the compiler.

Recent releases


Release Notes: This release fixes compilation problems with gcc 4.7.


Release Notes: This release allows encrypting the resulting resource file as a whole. This can be combined with compression (single resources and complete file) and encryption of single resources.


Release Notes: This release allows compressing the resource file as a whole. This compression works even if the single files are already compressed.


Release Notes: bzip2 was added as a second compression method for resources, and it is now possible to compile lrc without encryption, which shrinks the size from about 2.5 MB to about 190 KB.


Release Notes: A missing file was added to the tar ball.
