Re: please review baler and eor

Thank you for your comments - all fixed. I hope the DESTDIR support
in eor now works as you expected.

par2 is very good, yet too sophisticated and seemed not to be
maintained more(?). EOR, by contrast, brings simplicity so that even if
EOR is no longer mantained, a user does not have to worry about his
data, because anyone can write EOR easily again :-)

Similar idea brought Baler (vs too sophisticated dar & comp ...)
