When making UPGRADE archive a program is byte by byte compares the contents of files and in resulting file are stand only new information and reference to information in old files information. Program does not use classical algorithms of compression information. So UPGRADE archive possible to pack a classical archiver and get approximately double price in the size of file. Program allows create SFX archives, view and check the contents of the archive. When working with the program possible to use a virtual memory. There are possibility for the regular reserve copying. Long filenames allowed. |

pk250dos.exe (Apr 2 1999, 202.5K) |
| Description: |
PKZIP 2.50 for DOS - New features include full support of Windows 95 or Windows 98 Long File Names (LFNs). You are no longer limited to DOS 8.3 file names when running PKZIP in a Windows 95 or Windows 98 command line environment. You can extract, store and view LFNs inside a .ZIP archive without truncating the filename. PKZIP 2.50 for DOS uses the classic PKZIP 2.04g command line syntax, and can be used with existing batch files & scripts with no changes. Additionally, PKZIP 2.50 for DOS increases the file storage limitation from 5,000 to over 16,000 files stored in a single .ZIP archive. The ability to store more files in a .ZIP archive is a great benefit to anyone doing backup and restore operations using PKZIP. For the advanced user, PKZIP 2.50 for DOS will use DOS Protected Mode Interface (DPMI) in Windows 95/98, OS/2 and other DPMI supported environments to run 32-bit code for better and faster compression performance. PKZIP for DOS also offers full year 2000 (Y2K) compliance. |

MAINZEL Backup stores specified files in archives. It copies the original directory structure with one archive in every backup directory. Therefore the archives will not continue increasing in size. Furthermore, PKZIP compresses the files. All the archives can therefore be processed with other programs like Win-zip, etc. If you delete files in the original directory, MAINZEL Backup either keeps them in the archive, also excludes them or stores them in a different archive. You can specify multiple backup jobs (including wild cards) in a list file that can be used automatically when executing MAINZEL Backup (maybe at start/end of your session). |
