I want to limit to size of zpaq archive. |
You cannot 😄 |
my first question was about it. We lost in translation. |
Is it really that important to divide into pieces of a fixed size? |
close for now |
You can limit the size of the archive using |
zpaqfranz does create "chunked" archives of fixed size (now) https://sourceforge.net/projects/zpaqfranz/files/59.1/
59.2 is underway (minor bug fixed, interaction with Windows GUI (PAKKA) |
https://github.com/fcorbelli/zpaqfranz/releases/tag/59.1 Basically, the size can be indicated in bytes, in multiples of 1000 (K, M, G) or in multiples of 1024 (KB, MB, GB) 15000000 In version 59.1 there are not many controls, so it is good not to indicate size too small (* depends on 100 different factors). With the default settings I would not go below 100KB, just in case I decided to implement to allow a split for Blue-Ray burning. Note: the last piece will be LESS than the data set.

Something like in 7-zip command
7z a a.7z *.txt -v100M
