Version 2.01
1. Switch -ac - clear Archive attribute after compressing.
2. Switch -ao - add files with Archive attribute set.
3. Solid groups:
a) switch -se - reset Solid statistics, if file extension
is changed;
b) switch -s<N> - reset Solid statistics after N files;
These switches usually decrease compression ratio,
but also decrease losses from archive damages.
4. If no files are processed during archiving or deleting,
archive time is not changed.
5. Configuration parameter "RepackRatio <Percent>" is
added to RCVT.CFG. It allows to specify lowest
acceptable compression ratio of the repacked archive.
6. Switches -v360f, -v720f, -v1200f, -v1440f and -v2880f
can be used to select volume size correspondingly
with appropriate floppy disk format.
7. RAR, by default, deletes files with CRC errors after
extraction. The switch -kb specifies that files with
CRC errors should not be deleted.
8. The switch "-r0 - recurse subdirectories for wildcard
names only" has been added. In many cases this speeds
up list files processing.
9. The way of reading ZIP archives is changed to provide
more compatibility with different ZIP packers.
10. Source code of the freeware UnRAR (UnrS201.RAR)
is added to the distributive.
