Lha not a recognised command?

http://www.abware.net/guide_amigahd.php

I've succesfully extracted Lha.run in workbench, and all the commands are in the C drawer. problem is it now refuses to acknowledge lha as a command.
Typing in
lha x installer-43_3.lha

just comes up with

Lha unknown command

or something similar. Sorry for another whiney noob thread

any takers?

Did you extract LhA to C: or somewhere else? It sounds like it's somewhere that is not in your path...

I moved the Lha.run file to C: and extracted it there. All the stuff extracted is all there in my C: drawer :S

PS: Very sorry, should have mentioned I am using kickrom 3.0 and WB1.3 as my WB3.0 adfs went missing during a reinstall last year and my disks have long since bit the dust

Edit: I seem to remember a command that can copy a file to ram.... resident? sommink? would that work?

Edit2: Contents of my C: drawer:
Lha.guide - lha.run - lha_68020 - lha_68040 - lha_68k - lha_68k.readme

Edit3: Looking at the guide again, these don't look like the files in the screenshot. Getting the sinking feeling WHDload can only be used with WB3.0 or better?

Use google to find what you're missing...

WB1.3 guide is there for nostalgia, nothing else.

How about:

lha.run x installer-43_3.lha

or

lha_68k x installer-43_3.lha

?

you can rename file, but I really can't remember if installer will work with WB 1.3.

I was thinking its 2.x+.

why not install a hardrive with wb3.1 or 3.0 and then transfer the disk to your Amiga ? Wb 1.3 is mostly for nostalgy, imo
