DACT

If you're looking for a compression tool that dynamically chooses the best algorithm to achieve the most efficient results, DACT might be the software you need. By employing multiple algorithms on each block of input data, DACT creates an overall smaller output file.

DACT is packed with advanced features that let you encrypt files, access them over networks, ensure automatic upgrades, and use modular components. With its encryption and transparent access, DACT makes it easy to work with files located on FTP and HTTP servers.

The installation process involves running a series of commands in the terminal. This includes using the configure script to generate the necessary makefiles and running the make command to compile the source code. The su and make install commands are then executed to install DACT. You should note that by default, DACT gets installed in /usr/local, so you need the proper privileges to write there.

In this latest release, LZO-* was moved out of DEBUG, providing better and smoother performance. Overall, DACT is a powerful compression tool that offers dynamic compression, advanced features, and better performance.
