I think it is 'spanned zip' names that AddExt creates that he would like
selectable.
I am in the middle of working on ZipDll at the moment and have not had a
chance to see what would be required.
Everywhere I work on in the 'front end' of the dll I find thing that would
do to be speeded up (each file/dir it looks at appears to call 'stat' at
least 3 times (plus another if checking attribs/date, and each dir level
does at least one more).
I have to try to limit my present changes or I don't know if I will ever
finish, so if you can work what needs to be done for the spanned disk names
I would be most gratefull.
