AFX (Automatic File eXtractor) is a transparent file compression utility for Atari ST. It was developed primarily by Thomas Quester. Much of the information about it is in German.
Its native compressed file format is related to LHarc format. It's apparently a single-file format. Some of the Atari ST versions of LHarc can create AFX-compressed files.
