Hi Simon, I did not know that library! I'm still new to python and I still have problems to find the right commands.
But I suppose this library is mainly for partially compressing/decompressing of files. How can I use that library to compress/decompress full files without reading them into memory? And what about performance? Thanks Wolfgang Simon Forman schrieb: > Wolfgang wrote: >> Hi, >> >> I want to compress all files (also in subfolder).
