What's new in 7-Zip 26.01

(From the release notes by Igor Pavlov.)

  • Linux version of 7-Zip can use huge pages (2 MB pages). It can increase compression speed by 10% for 7z/xz/LZMA/LZMA2 compression.
  • New -spo[d|c|r] switch specifies the path generation mode for the output directory for archive extraction. The output directory path is generated from the path specified in the -o{dir_path} switch and the name of the archive being unpacked.
    • -spod: for Linux/Posix/macOS: -o{dir_path} specifies the direct path to the output directory. The asterisk (*) character in {dir_path} will not be replaced by the archive name.
    • -spoc: 7-Zip will concatenate the path specified in -o{dir_path} with the archive name to form the final path to the output directory.
    • -spor: 7-Zip will replace the asterisk (*) character in the path specified in -o{dir_path} with the archive name. This is the default option.
  • Some bugs were fixed.

I love me that "Some bugs were fixed" ;-)

Apparently https://github.com/ip7z/7zip/ is kind of the official repository now, but its commit history is not exactly what I call illuminating...
