7-Zip and WinRar are better as they support unicode filenames.

#1.1 Skyfrog on 03 Nov 2007 - 14:49

I think they are adding unicode support in 10.5

#1.2 night_stalker_z on 03 Nov 2007 - 14:53

They said that for version 10 but then again it is still version 10.

They better do... fast.
I love the PowerArchiver application, even have bought it coupla' years ago, but inability to deal properly with Cyrillic in file names still pees me off.

Thanks for the heads up - will hope too that Unicode support will finally arrive.

Too bad it once got shareware...

(The "ribbon" UI sucks.)

#2.1 VRam on 03 Nov 2007 - 18:08

The ribbon interface is optional

#2.2 th3rEsa on 03 Nov 2007 - 18:14

I see. But it sucks.

It does while you haven't got used to the whole ribbon interface paradigm.
Once you do, it stops sucking and starts to be rewarding.
Applicable to all programs using Ribbon-based interfaces, starting, of course, with Microsoft Office 2007.

But I have to admit, the learning curve for Ribbon is slow. Lots of people are pleading that they never will use this "abomination"...

... until they "get it" and never complain again after 4 hours of Ribbon use.

haha, how original with the ribbon interface.....NOT!
another Vista wannabe application...lol

#3.1 virtorio on 04 Nov 2007 - 03:37

Since when did the ribbon have anything to do with Vista?

#3.2 Skyfrog on 05 Nov 2007 - 01:56

It's from Office, not Vista. I see what you are saying though, we should all just stick with the same interface style used since the Xerox Star, right? Every time something changes, even if it's for the better there are groups of people whining about it because they fear change. Then they all get used to it and life goes on.

I'm glad more applications are starting to utilize Office 2007's amazing interface. Finally! I am currently starting development on an app using the Ribbon. Visual Studio 2008 makes this ridiculously easy.
