Data,
Do you guys still have plans to repack all game archives? (If I remember correctly, there were some games in folders, other without folder and there are couples of compression methods for zip games)

Repack should standardize archives.

I like winrar the most, you can get it here: http://www.rarlab.com/rar/wrar35b5.exe.
It can uncompress 7z files, but I am not sure if winzip can.

edit: this program is MUCH more useful than windows's uncompress utility.

7z tends to get slightly better compression, but there's not a lot in it really. Its chief advantage is that it's comepletely free, unlike winzip or winrar. Personally I use all 3.

I use all of them too, and just as BB said, 7zip is free, while others are 'evoluation' versions....

Hi,

I was wondering: how can I get DosBox to run in fullscreen mode? The readme file is too hard to figure out.

Also in Dosbox.conf, where it reads "fullscreen=false", change the entry to "fullscreen=true". You might then want to have "fullfixed=true" as well.
