You seem to be referring to LBR there, but nowadays I think zip might
actually be a reasonable option. You could make a DOS-style zip with
"zip -k", then use this version of CP/M unzip (which supports the
Deflate method) to extract it:
https://github.com/agn453/UNZIP-CPM-Z80
Also, nomarch extracts .arc, and lbrate extracts .lbr and deals with
decompression:
https://zgedneil.nfshost.com/nomarch.html
https://www.ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/utils/compress/lbrate-1.1.tar.gz
Disclaimer - I may have had some involvement with the above, but they
seem to work despite that. :-)
(Compiling lbrate does give a warning for me after 20+ years - which
looks a lot like the issue I just fixed in nomarch - but in practice
it should still be ok to use as-is.)
