I can't find a newsgroup for 7-Zip so I'll ask here.
Point me at a relevant newsgroup please.
I am using 7-Zip to zip a number of files.
I use the 7-Zip 7ZA.EXE that runs in the background.
I provide it with a file that contains a list of files to place into
the final output zipped file.
This all works most all the time.
The exception is when the file list contains many files or possible
some other problem.
I believe the list is good since if I supply this same list, in all
cases, big or small, to WinZip, then WinZip has no problem producing
the output zipped file only 7-Zip get stumped and quits without
finishing.
But as I said, WinZip handles the same list and 7-Zip works fine with a
shorter list.
So is there some built-in limit to the number of files or what?
Running on Win XP Pro with all the latest updates.
Have 4G RAM.
BTW the resultant WinZip file is 150 MBytes and is a combination of
compressable text and non-compressable Zip and BMP files.
