TrueZIP 7.3 Release Candidate 1

I am pleased to announce TrueZIP 7.3 Release Candidate 1. This version provides a minor bug fix, some improvements and a new major feature for updating really large archive files: The GROW Output Option Preference. This feature is otherwise also known as archive-appending mode and is the equivalent of a multi-session disc (CD, DVD etc) for archive files.
