I have come across a new software called ALZip which has a format called ".egg" which is really powerful compressing format

I had tried several files,all showed great compression ratios.

But i was not able to find out a way to incorporate it with install script fonts or even the command prompt way.

If anybody can incorporate it with ISS then all those "arc+srep+precomp" method which takes hell lot of time can be skipped and game conversion can be made more easy...........

the unegg module for decompression

The EGG Module uses zlib that is public at zlib . net, and follows the "zlib License".
The EGG Module uses bzip2 library public at bzip . org, and follows the "bzip License".

which are already supported by Inno, and as this new format supports Inno Unicode, shouldn't take much to add the dll support.

Well after giving the tool a try, well it doesn't seems to give better compression, instead the compressed file was almost around 5Mb larger than the same folder compressed via 7zip.
