[A83] Re: Is compression possible?
In 83+, to get the best results and to compress large files, the
compression program must be very small in size or it must be an app, then.
But an app is very large. I never understood why they have that extra ram
in SE.
Maybe somehow, this compression algorithm can be combined with grouping
and group files can be compressed.
