That cannot happen with open source formats, that's why I prefer open formats like 7Z to close ones like RAR. RAR is a proprietary format, its license forbid to create other RAR compressors.

Makes it easy to pinpoint which ones are used for compressing and which ones are used for extracting. I actually like that it includes those symbols... I have to think less when looking for the commands. Pieter wrote:

I prefer having a few entries right in context menu rather than having to open a submenu like for 7-Zip. I like PeaZip's way: only few basic entries in the context menu and a lot of options in the Sendto menu (which functionally works exactly as 7-Zip submenu, so where is the problem?) Like I said, this is just subjective, you don't like it, I do. Pieter, it is subjective. I prefer having a few entries right in context menu rather than having to open a submenu like for 7-Zip.

Fortunately, you can rename every "Send to" item by typing 'sendto' in the Start > Run dialog. And what’s up with these pluses and minuses?
