When TMX files in the tm subfolder of a project are zipped, OmegaT should unzip them in this folder automatically.
Note: Zipping TMX files is necessary when these files are large.
That's "nice to have in some circumstances", not "necessary". Note also that while zipping (or otherwise compressing to binary) is OK for svn, it is undesirable for e.g. git.

I haven't done any test, so I cannot be sure, but this should rather reasonable, depending on the size of the TMX. Unzipping on the fly is what we do for .docx and .odt.

Can you expand on why it is "necessary"?
In a team setting, such as an SVN project, zipping files helps decrease download times.

Since 2.6, OmegaT supports Gzipped TMX (.tmx.gz).

Excellent. This is exactly what I need. Is there any performance cost compared to unarchived TMXs though?

This is implemented in trunk, r10123. Zipped TMs must have the suffix
.tmx.zipand the TM itself must be the first entry in the zip.Last edit: Aaron Madlon-Kay 2017-10-20
Implemented in the released version 4.1.3 of OmegaT.
