#643 ZIP: XZ-Compression with PeaZip (Linux + Windows)

[Reinhold Helmschrott]

With the PeaZip-console, it's possible to create ZIP-XZ files.
The XZ format (Based on the LZMA2 algorithm) uses the same settings as LZMA-compression. Only the command is XZ.

In the dropdown-list (GUI) there are no entry for ZIP-XZ files, only for ZIP-LZMA.

How to create ZIP-XZ files with PeaZip:

Add selected files with ZIP-Compression. Go to "Advanced", --> select Method »LZMA«, go to "Console".

--> Change -mm=LZMA through -mm=XZ in the console.
--> Optional: Change file extension in the line »zip« to »zipx«.
--> Press button "Launch task".

On Linux it's possible to create ZIP-XZ files.

Thank you for the suggestion.
For next version I'll test extra methods supported for ZIP/ZIPX format.
