exe and exe2; Where are These From?

[brispuss]

In many game compression codes, I often see something like -

srep+exe+exe2+delta+lzma

I have tried searching for the sources of 'exe' and 'exe2' commands, but have been unable to find their sources.

I understand srep, delta, and lzma, but where are exe and exe2 from?

These are aliases for the bcj/bcj1 and bcj2 filters; see the "[Compression methods]" section of arc.ini.

Aliases! No wonder I had difficulty finding out what they were!

So they are part of FreeArc. Now I know.

Thank you for the clarification.
