• Quick Look preview of files inside the archive, with arrow keys moving through the list.
• Empty window now has Open Archive… and New Archive… buttons and accepts dropped files.
• File → Open Recent lists the last archives.
• Settings window (⌘,): default format and level for quick compression, reveal-in-Finder behaviour, update check, interface language.
• Create Archive dialog remembers the last format and options; also encrypt file names is only enabled once a password is typed.
• Overwrite prompt gained a Skip option; after extraction the extracted items are selected in Finder; after compression the new archive is revealed.
• Password prompts have a Show password toggle; error dialogs show the engine output with a Copy Details button.
• The Open dialog now lists every supported archive type, not only RAR.
• Temporary files from previews and double-click opens are cleaned up when the app quits.
