I'm still trying to find a compression algorithm that beats whatever
7-zip uses. The results are by magnitudes smaller than any other
compression algorithm I have seen.
Well, there are some ones. There is the PAQ family that are the best
now. Of course they are research compressors mostly written in C++
but they exist. There is a freepascal/lazarus app that implements a
GUI for this and other algorithms, at
http://peazip.sourceforge.net/ (i'm not the developer).
