Compression
Drag-and-Drop files to Noah's icon. Then you'll have an archive at the direcotry you specified in the configure dialog.
If you drop files with 'Ctrl' key pressed, then you can archive them to
an SFX archive (executable and self-extractable archive.)
*) for lzh, cab, bga archives only.
When you drop multiple files, normally Noah will pack them to one archive. But if you drop files with 'Alt' key pressed, then each files is compressed to different archives.

Drag-and-Drop archives to Noah's icon. Noah automatically decides which operation (compress, or extract) to do by analyzing dropped files.
