I was thinking about allowing the user to define his own compression method. A method that is not in the list (yet). There is an option "Custom" but I am unsure how that works. It may be usefull in the unlikely eventy an new compression method pops up that is ideal for use in Fidonet. :)

I am in favour of throwing out no longer used stuff. KISS..
