Hi,

I'd like to use 7zip to compress successive versions of the book
I'm writing. For files containing long, identical sections as in
this case, 7zip produces archives *10 times* smaller than InfoZip.

However, the DOS 7zip I'm using seems to have these limitations:

- compresses sub-folders, but afterwards is unable to de-compress them

- does not recognize the "@" syntax (file containing list of files),
although the manual says it should

- is unable to add a file to an existing archive


The version I'm running is P7ZIP.EXE from 2009-03-05. The file size is
624,292 bytes. I use Japheth's HDPMI32.EXE.

The command line seems to need the option -md480k (dictionary size),
which I found by trial and error, but since 7zip instructions are
quite complicated, this may be inappropriate.

Thanks for any hint on those issues.

Marcos
