method. This program is taken from LZMA SDK. 7-zip uses the same compression
method, but creates 7Z archives instead of pure LZMA data stream. LZMA can
compress and decompress data streams using standard input/output.
Compression ratio is about 25-30% better than bzip2 and decompression speed
is about two times faster. This makes LZMA good bzip2 replacement for
use in software distribution.

people to join a torrent (after they have converted their zip files) with a
particular set of files, thus preventing them from having to download the
entire set of files again. Because of the way TorrentZip creates identical
zips, the file hashes will always match those in the original torrent.

PEAR::File_Archive will let you manipulate easily the tar, gz and zip files.
This library is strongly object oriented. It makes it very easy to use, writing
simple code, yet the library is very powerfull.
File_Archive is made of two objects: readers and writers. Are currently
implemented readers from file, directory, tar, gz, zip and bzip2 archives.
You can write to file(s), send mails with files attached, or create tar, gz,
zip, bzip2 archives.

The release notes can be found at
http://www.gnome.org/start/2.10/notes/rnwhatsnew.html, and will give you a
good idea of what has gone into this release overall. However, a lot of
FreeBSD specific additions and fixes have been made. For example, this
release offers fixed ACPI support as well as new CPU freqeuncy monitoring
support. See the FreeBSD GNOME 2.10 upgrade page at
http://www.FreeBSD.org/gnome/docs/faq210.html for the entire list as well
as a list of known issues and upgrade instructions.
GNOME 2.10, as well as all of our releases, would not be possible without
the great team that goes into porting and testign each and every component.
Thanks definitely goes out to ahze, adamw, bland, kwm, mezz, and pav for all
their work. We would also like to thank our adventurous users that chose to
ride the walrus. We'd especially like to thank the following users that
provided patches for GNOME 2.10:
ade
Yasuda Keisuke
Franz Klammer
Khairil Yusof
Radek Kozlowsk
And anyone else I may have accidentally omitted.
As with GNOME 2.8, 2.10 comes with a brand-spankin' new splashscreen
courtesy of Franz Klammer. However, unlike GNOME 2.8, we've included all
of the FreeBSD GNOME splashscreen entries with gnomesession. You can
use the deskutils/splashsetter port to choose the one you like best.
As always, GNOME users should _not_ use portupgrade alone to upgrade to
2.10. Instead, get the gnome_upgrade.sh script from
http://www.FreeBSD.org/gnome/gnome_upgrade.sh.
Enjoy!
