What's new after 7-Zip 4.57:
- 7-Zip now supports LZMA compression for .ZIP archives.
- 7-Zip now can unpack UDF, XAR and DMG/HFS archives.
- It's allowed to use -t switch for "list" and "extract" commands.
- Some speed optimizations.
- 7-Zip now can unpack .lzma archives.
- Unicode (UTF-8) support for filenames in .ZIP archives. Now there are
3 modes:
1) Default mode: 7-Zip uses UTF-8, if the local code page doesn't
contain required symbols.
2) -mcu switch: 7-Zip uses UTF-8, if there are non-ASCII symbols.
3) -mcl switch: 7-Zip uses local code page.
- Now it's possible to store file creation time in 7z and ZIP archives
(-mtc switch).
- 7-Zip now can unpack multivolume RAR archives created with
"old style volume names" scheme and names *.001, *.002, ...
- Now it's possible to use -mSW- and -mSW+ switches instead of -mSW=off
and -mSW=on
- Some bugs were fixed.
- New localizations: Punjabi (Indian), Pashto, Sinhala, Icelandic,
Kurdish Sorani.
