[Dev-C++] 7-Zip

[Ioannis V. <no...@ho...>]

Someone in MINGW-users list said about 7-Zip. 7-Zip is a free program
(under LGPL) whicch in addition to other formats (in which is more
efficient than its competition) supports its open 7z format which
produces *incredible* compression.
 
MINGW under 7z occupies the HALF space than RAR (and it's free)!
 
So regarding Dev-C++ i suggest colin to use this format for the Dev-C++
archives to minimize time for download. The 7z format is free.
