7-Zip 4.62: good archiver of broad functionality

9th December 2008

A new version of the archiver 7-Zip has come out. The program supports all common formats of archival files: ZIP, CAB, RAR, ARJ, GZIP, BZIP2, TAR, CPIO and RPM, as well as its own format 7z, which provides a very high degree of compression and allows you to compress files better than, for example, WinZip and WinRAR. 7-Zip is especially handy when you want to compress large files.
The latest version adds support of compressing LZMA and ZIP-archives; an opportunity to extract UDF, XAR and DMG / HFS; improves embedded file manager; adds support of Unicode for file names in ZIP-archives.
