> I recommend Compress because all the participants could predict what that might do and why they might use it.
Was one of the understood reasons why they might use it to group many files into one to send as an attachment, or to create a single file backup of a directory? That seems to be the primary use for archives, not to save space but to include many files in one. Also, in the future ( if / when btrfs is the default file system ) compression may be built into the file system so you could compress a file or directory without creating a separate file. What should a user look for to send multiple files in an attachment when "compressing" them doesn't make that any easier? I am not disagreeing with making the change for Karmic, just noting some possible issues / questions. -- "Archive Manager" doesn't mean anything if you don't know what an "archive" is https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/15495 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
