MiraWizARC 1.0 (this specific version!)

MethodGit · 26 February 2006, 19:31

I don't understand really why Jaybee still keeps bundling the buggy v1.1b with AIAB all the time. I seem to recall v1.0 having better performance!

In particular it listed files one at a time as it compressed them, rather than trying to stretch the window to fit all the names on at once as it did in 1.1b. Plus with 1.1b you had to select files out of a directory in chunks and compress them in parts - if you tried to compress all the files in a dir at once it would just crash everytime!

No doubt it's available on one of the old Aminet CDs but I was just wondering if anyone happened to have a copy still of the nicer version of WizARC? Cheers!

I had many crashes because of that problem. Later, I just put everything into a folder before compressing to avoid crashes. I didn't know the earlier version didn't have this problem. I'd like to find version 1.0 too then.
