This is based on the "arc.groups" file. So place the first "arc.groups" file next to the "ListExt.exe" file.
The next step is to set up the "ListExt.ini" file. The aim is to introduce compression methods for each group of files.

It is done as follows,

ListExt.ini

; Freearc Compression Methods according to the 'arc.groups' file.

$default = srep+nz

$text = dict:p+lzp+ppmd:10:512mb+nz
$binary = precomp+rep:512mb+lzma:1gb:200:ht4:mc128
$exe = bcj2+rep:512mb+delta+exe+rz
$iso = ecm+precomp+rep:512mb+bcj2+delta+lzma:1gb:273:ht4:mc256
$obj = precomp+srep+nz
$bmp = bmp+nz
$wav = tta+nz
$mod = rep:512mb+lzma:1gb:200:ht4:mc128
$precomp = precomp+rep:512mb+delta+rz
$jpg = jpg+nz
$jpgsolid = precomp+rep:32+nz
$compressed = rep:64m+lzma:128m:128:ht4:mc16



; Other ListExt Settings
OverwriteLogs = 1

We're all set now. All that is left is to drag a folder through "ListExt.exe".
At the end of the process it'll recommend an appropriate compression method for your respective folder.
The file groups and the recommended compression method can be viewed in the ListExt_log.log file created at the end of the process.

What kind of dict;p? Thank you
