BetterZip 6.0.4 brings a few more bug fixes
Here is the latest update to BetterZip which brings some enhancements and a number of bug fixes:
Enhancements:
- Greatly reduced memory usage when working with archives that contain a very large number of items.
- Greatly reduced memory usage and improved responsiveness of the Favorites sidebar when it scans folders with many archives.
- The Favorites and Preview menu items now show checkmarks when toggled on.
- Queued extractions can apply a conflict resolution to all archives in the queue.
- Added a “high” compression option to the AppleScript dictionary to exactly match the options in the UI.
Bug Fixes:
- Invalid regular expressions in filter patterns could lead to a crash.
- Under certain rare circumstances, BetterZip would not be able to open zip files at all.
- Fixed a crash when saving with a tar.gz preset.
- Fixed a crash when a btrzp:// URL or a programmatic open/extract named a file that doesn’t exist. Such entries are now skipped and the rest of the batch still processes.
- Fixed symbolic links being stored as full copies in 7z archives when the compression level came from AppleScript’s “best” (or any level the format doesn’t define). The 7z “Best (solid)” level is now simply called “Best” (solid is the 7z default anyway).
- Fixed “Move originals to” leaving the compressed folder behind when “Don’t include the single root folder in the archive” is checked. Name conflicts in the move destination now get numbered suffixes instead of silently failing.
- Fixed a permission error when extracting directly into the root of an external disk with the “Never create an extra folder” preset option.
- Fixed the sidebars forgetting whether they were opened or collapsed.
- Fixed a leftover divider line after resizing the window.
- Fixed the Dropzone actions failing for file names containing spaces and for presets with non-ASCII names. Please reinstall the actions to get the fix.
- Fixed the Alfred workflows ignoring presets with non-ASCII names; also updated them to the new BetterZip 6 icon. Please reinstall the workflows to get the fix.
- Restored the missing icon for newly installed Dropzone and LaunchBar actions.
If you find any problems, please do get in touch and report them. Thanks!
