There have been complaints about zoo archiving gif pics and making them bigger.
Since, the gif format already uses a compression scheme (Lempel Huffman?),
could you tell us if the new version of amigazoo checks/recognizes the 'GIF87A'
header and if it finds it, prompts the user and/or [just] "fast adds" the file
to the archive without attempting compression ?

Also, does AmigaZoo v2.01 parallel the Unix version of the same revision 
number (ie adds 'm' and 'OO' modifiers) ?
