Packed files
------------
The most files on this CD have the enlargement ZIP.
What are the characteristic of .ZIP and why make we use of?
-----------------------------------------------------------
With help of special compress programs it is possible to transfer
programs without data loss in a format, which need less place.
This function also with programs, which have underlists and
several supplementary datas how driver, data files etc. The
most known and reflex program is the PKZIP V2.04 from USA.
The advantages of compress files are:
-------------------------------------
1. It develops smaller files, which save Harddisk place.
2. The same file, only smaller, need less the time for the
download.
3. Because the compress file can contain several files (also
lists) it is simple to download or copy one program
instead of a lot.
