(ACT 2.0) - May 1999
Edition
This page is the new archiver index page. This
format contains both the contact and download information from
the previous style index, plus it includes the information found
in the old Archive Table page and also includes which compression
algoritms are used (if known). As you can see, I have only had
time to add some of the entries. More entries will appear over
time and eventually it should be completed.
Features Legend:
A = Authentication Verification (Security Envelope)
E = Encryption (Ability to encrypt/garble files in archive with
password)
G = GUI (Graphical or Text Shell to manage archiver functions)
L = Windows Long Filename Support
M = Multi Disk Spanning (Ability to span an archive over two or
more disks)
P = Data Protection Encoding (Stores Error Recovery Info)
S = Solid Archives (All files compressed together as one instead
of individually)
X = SFX (Ability to create Self-Extracting Archives)
