New! :: 7zX 1.6

Posted on Saturday 3 February 2007

Long live the AppleDouble standard: you can now create archives which remain compatible with almost any system while retaining Macintosh resource forks and Spotlight metadata.

7zX 1.6 doesn’t contain the reminders for donations present in the past releases; remember, however, that this project still relies on your contributions! A Startup Guide in PDF format has been finally included in the disk image. Have fun. :D

    I cannot find my password for “7zX 1.6. I have tried several times to go the “Mirror 1″ site listed above. Nothing happens.

    Please send me my password ASAP.

    Thanks,

    If in the process of compressing a folder the hard drive runs out of space, where are the incomplete compression files to delete?

    I dragged a folder from an external drive and chose ‘ultra’ compression, but it started the compression on my startup disk, which I knew didn’t have enough room. It stopped itself when I only had 25mb of free space left…

    I have found a folder called 7zx_archive-1170678278, but no completed .7z file, and just want to be doubly, triply sure before deleting it.

    Second, why didn’t the compression start in the location from where I dragged/dropped the file, on my external drive?

    Is there, or will there be, a way to choose the location of your final compressed file?

    Many thanks.

    Just restart your Mac, and any temporary files will be deleted. Folders in the format “7zX_archive-xxxxxxxxxx” are only created in order to apply AppleDouble encoding; the compression operation itself is performed on the same disk on which the original file is located.

    There must be a conflict with Smart Crash Reports.

    I suggest that you disable the SCR bundle (for example, by moving the package to a different folder and performing a logout) and try opening 7zX again.

    Want to archive old project files to CD/DVD in a compressed format, have a searcheable list that will tell me which disc a particular file is on, and an archive browser that will allow me to select and extract only the desired files.

    7zX looks like it will create segmented archives that can then be burned to CD. Are you aware of a product or products that would create a searchable text file list of the archive and then be able to browse and extract individual files?

    Thanks in advance.

    Hi I love your little handy tool, but just one thing anoys me: The selfextracting Files are VERY big. I compressed a 300kB File and the resulting archive was 2,3 MB. After having a look into the app file I found out why: There is CocoaDialog.app, CocoaKeys.app, Growlnotify …
    It would be nice if you could offer an option to turn off things like Growl (which not everyone uses) to gain a smaller file

  19.

    The smallest self-extracting archive 7zX can build (by archiving an empty folder) is 2.6 MB.

    This seems reasonable to me, if you consider that 1.8 MB are used by the compression/decompression engine, and an extra 524 KB are used to handle password-protected archives. The growl helper is just 156 KB.

  20.

    Hello, I love 7zX, very easy and quick. However, there are two features I’d like to see implemented:

    Actual progress bar, the “indefinite” bar makes me nervous on large archives.

    An automator task that can take folders/files as in input, and you can set all the compression settings and then it will output a folder/files to another task.

    I would be happy to attempt these if you send the source code.

  21.  
    April 13, 2007 | 10:41 pm
     

    We are currently working to implement other features, so I don’t know when the ones you mentioned will be introduced. Don’t worry, we’ll do our best to make you an even happier user. :)

    I’m just trying out 7zX and its compression rate is really impressing.
    However, German umlauts and other not-quite-ASCII glyphs in file/folder names (ä, ö, ß etc.) are lost when decompressing the archive (the archive name itself is still correct).
    I have also packed a folder giving a password: 7zX does never ask it when unpacking again; instead it shows an error: “Datei konnte nicht entpackt werden: Unbekanntes Datenformat” (file could not be unpacked: unknown file format). It actually shows this message for each single part of the folder, including its .DS_Store file. The unpacked folder and each file in it then shows 0 KB and cannot be opened.

    Excuse for my late reply: I have been away from home for a few days.

    Problems with non-common characters have been reported before, and probably are to be attributed to the compression core used by 7zX. A newer release could address the issue.

    Regarding your problems with password-protected files: moving the archive to a different folder and trying to expand it again could bring some results.
