Description Jeff Gilchrist 2007-07-26 03:04:35 UTC
The ability to directly compress files without using threads when files are smaller than the specified block size or the system only has 1 CPU was added. This will speed things up considerably if you are compressing many small files. Support to automatically specify decompression mode when using a pbunzip2 symbolic link was added. The pbzip2 exit code behaviour was changed to match bzip2 for all error states.

Thanks,
Jeff.
