This appears to be an esoteric compression format, so I'm not sure if it would be worth
it, but I have found a file or two compressed in this format.
paracelsus:
Apparently KGB is based in PAQ6, which is GPL, and thus incompatible with the The Unarchiver
license (LGPL). Adding support would either require re-implementing from scratch (unlikely
to ever happen), or the author of PAQ changing the license to LGPL.
paracelsus:
Hmm, at least there appears to be source code.
Not going to add this quite yet, probably, but if someone would find support useful,
please speak up in here.
