BetterZip 1.8.1 has been released

BetterZip lets you open archives without immediately extracting them. This is much faster and you don't have to remove the extracted files and folders after using them. The currently supported archive formats are: ZIP, TAR, GZip, and BZip.

Add files and folders to existing archives, update files already in the archive, move files around within the archive, and delete files and folders from an archive. Easily search for files and folders by name inside the archive.

BetterZip lets you create clean archives without the Mac specific files (Finder configuration or resource forks) to happily exchange with Windows or Linux users.

New in this version:
•New Features
BetterZip can now concatenate split files: something.001 + something.002 + ...
Added a Russian localization by Alexandr Slavyshensky.
•Bugs fixed
File modification times in zip files created with BetterZip were shifted by the timezone offset.
Folder modification times were always set to the time of the archive creation.
When RAR files were re-saved they always ended up as multi-volume archives.
Files in multi-volume RAR archives with missing parts can be previewed and extracted again, if the missing parts are not necessary.
RAR files with header encryption are handled in a better way now. You get repeated chances to enter the correct password and the archive will no longer be moved to the trash when you cancel the process. (If you had enabled this feature in the preferences.)
Only the first part of a multi-volume RAR archive with the old naming scheme (r00,...) was deleted automatically when the deleting option was set.
