In this chapter we will decompress lha files.
1. Please make sure you have downloaded and copied lha.run to C:\Program Files\WinUAE\Hard Disks\Programs directory. You can download lha.run from Here or http://main.aminet.net/util/arc/lha.run
2. Next re-launch the WinUAE program, left click the config you made, click the Load button and click OK/Start to start emulation.
3. When workbench is booted you should see Ram Disk, Programs and System. Double click System, double click the next System drawer in the window that opened, and then double click the Shell program to open Amiga DOS. Amiga DOS is similar to MS-DOS but is much better ;-)
4a. Now type: Programs:lha.run Ram: and press Return/Enter
4b. Type: Copy Ram:lha_68020 C:lha and press Return/Enter
You should now have lha installed. (You will notice three different versions of lha optimised for three different CPU speeds. The one we are using is optimised for the 68020 CPU.) Now we can decompress our files.
5. Now we’ll extract the Installer-43_3.lha archive,
So type:
lha x programs:Installer-43_3.lha programs: and press
Return/Enter

Return/Enter.
9. Icon replacements (two options)
a. Magic Workbench
Icons are 8 colour icons for use with basic workbench setups and don’t use
as much memory. The version we will be installing is shareware so some
icons have been blanked. (Recommended only if you want to enhance the looks
but you don’t want to install Scalos or ClassAct, and if you are not using
JIT)
If you want Magic Workbench
Icons then extract the magicwb2.1p.lha archive, by typing:
lha x programs:magicwb2.1p.lha programs: and press
Return/Enter
b. NewIcons are
based on a 32-colour palette (you need Scalos or the
ClassAct gadgets to view in OS 3) These are freeware. (Recommended if you
are planning on installing Scalos, Picasso and use with WinUAE JIT
settings)
If you want NewIcons then extract the newicons46.lha
archive, by typing:
lha x programs:newicons46.lha programs: and press
Return/Enter
