New from Symbianware: Stacker V2.05
Published by Rafe Blandford at
With these new additions, this is surely one of the most useful applications
available for series 60 devices at this point.
Changes:
There is no need to unpack all applications to upgrade to the new version. Just install the new version
over the previous one.
So,
- We have highly optimized our format and found a way to improve compression rate a little bit. Now all compressed applications will take 276 bytes of space less each.
- Built-in FileBrowser is highly improved. It allows you to compress/decompress any file on your device in some key presses.
- Five compressor layouts were added.
+ Caption indicator - Small indicator displayed in the caption area.
+ Bottom indicator - Small indicator displayed in the bottom of the screen.
+ Classic progress - Classic progress bar on the bottom of the screen.
+ Caption pie - Small pie styled progress displayed in the caption area.
+ Bottom pie - Small pie styled progress displayed in the bottom of the screen
- Two performance options were added.
+ Best speed - compressor is optimized for high speed.
+ Background - compressor is optimized for multitasking, so while compressing/decompressing you can work with your device almost without noticeable performance lost and WITHOUT ANY LIMITATIONS.
- Look and feel settings were added in the 'Misc' menu.
Here you can define:
+ Which layout and performace will be used while compressed app is starting
+ Which layout and performace will be used while compressed app is clossed and being compressed
Default settings: when application is starting it uses high speed
settings and classic progress layout, when application is closing and
being compressed again it uses background settings for speed and small caption indicator.
Here you can also specify whether Stacker should change an application
icon or not. BTW, if you don't want Stacker to patch application icon
you can save additional 1-2 Kb per each application.
- English and German versions are available.
