I'm reading about a new zip format being touted called zipx. Supposedly this is the "next generation" of the format that will be used. I'm wondering if anybody has heard anything about this and whether DOpus will be able to add support for this? Tnanks.
Opus could support it if its internal zip code was updated, or someone wrote a plugin, same as any other archive format. Whether or not Opus will support it depends on if people want it and if the format is actually used by anyone. So far I've never seen a zipx file and from reading about the format it sounds quite similar to 7z.
Edit: I meant it's similar to 7z in terms of compression, not in terms of the container format. The zipx container format is still the normal zip format.
Maybe we should talk to Winzip about getting Winzip into Opus!
