I think it's pretty obvious. It exports archiving capabilities to AMXx....
Use this to compress/decompress ZIP files in your server.

I found more bugs. I will fix today. I am having problem with:
RB_SetUnzipBaseDir

Wait plis.
I also fix some other error but I don't have time to upload the new version. So, Wait an not use this bug version.

I don't see how this would be practical in any situation in HL games.

My server logs constantly, every 100 I zip them all up to save on space.

But if the zip creation is not made using threads it will block other calls when using over big files.

In that case, it should be done at map load, intermission, etc.

I never thought of that. But the question is, is the compression ratio large enough to make a dent in the HD usage when you have many log files?

No, it's just more convenient. Since it will label them by date. Instead of searching through many log files.
But joropito has a point. Without it being called in a thread, if I were to zip any bigger files, it will interrupt gameplay.

@fysiks
It depends on the algorithm and how much time you want to spend compressing.

You can expect something like 2:1 or 3:1 compression.
