Question/Suggestion - Show progress during zip files

[NewsArchive]

Is there a way to show some kind of progress when zipping files with SB? A
progress bar would be great, files/folder names would work also.

Reason: When installing an update, my installers creates a backup of all TPS
files as a protection in case something goes wrong during the FM3 upgrade.

It's working great, but with larger files it runs a while without showing
any feedback to the user.

Thanks!

Only the unzip process can do it at the moment. I'll check if it is
possible to do the same with the zip process.

Thank you for your suggestion.

BTW, what you can do now is to display a "Wait" dialog with a "Zipping
files. Please wait..." text.
