I like Abbrevia, simpler and faster and native Delphi, so will be switching
to this.
I noticed that if a file is in use, it will be quietly skipped when making a
zip. (This is not unique to Abbrevia, they all seem to do the same).
Anyone know if there is anything to detect any files that
I used TP products for many years and in my opinion they were absolutely
bullet proof. It was such a shame that they closed down - too much freeware
around I guess.
If you use Abbrevia, you should have access to the source code so there
should be a way of trapping a skipped file, even if it means
Abbrevia looks good. 5 seconds slower than old PKZIP, thats acceptable for
what I want.
Anyone who knows Abbrevia shed light on this?

Testing Zipmaster for creating zip archives. Looks good but - two
practical problems:
1 - Its Slow - archiving 60 files of around 150MB takes 2 mins 38 sec, by
comparison the old PKZIP takes 18 seconds.
2 - I managed to crash or terminate writing an archive once, and that left
the archive
I've used the free '7Zip' with good results.

7Zip you drive by Shellexecute and Command line? or is there a native
Delphi? If it is Shellexecute then I am fine using PKZIP - note there is a
later version (V4) called pkzipc that does long filenames, with a different
syntax.
About to check out Abbrevia for speed
