'-a' - PRESERVE FILE ATTRIBUTES

If this option is enabled, LZX will store (when archiving) and restore (when
extracting)  file attributes .

This option is ENABLED by default.  To disable it, enter '-a0' on the command
line.  When this option is disabled, files added to, or extracted from
archives will have the '----rw-d' attributes.

In order to ensure that file attributes are properly preserved, preservation
of file attributes must be active both when the files were archived and when
they are extracted.

File attributes will be properly preserved and translated across all
platforms for which LZX is available.

Note that by default LZX will clear the archive attribute ('a') for any file
extracted; enter  '-C0'  on the command line to disable this feature.


VALIDITY

This option is valid with the following commands:

   a (add)
   e (extract)
   f (freshen)
   r (replace)
   u (update)
