Lzip 1.5
Lzip is a compiled compressor for AmigaOS, AmigaOS 4 and AROS which is based on the LZMA-algorithm. It is supposed to be as almost fast as gzip and does compress much better than bzip2.

MorphOS: 7-Zip 4.65
The compression software 7-Zip is available for MorphOS in version 4.65 which includes bug fixes as well as higher speed.
The archive includes the command line based compressors 7za and 7zr as well as the complete source code, a Deficon, the script Compress7z for creating 7z-archives and an updated filetype which uses Chris Young's 68k-7z-XAD-client as standard application if you have copied it to LIBS:XAD/ before.
With the client you can use 7z-archives just like Read-only-directories which allows you to extract single files which is still not completely stable and which is a little bit slow.
