What's new in this version:

Enhancements:
- If you change the preview font, BetterZip will now remember it
- Added an explicit encoding option in the file open panel. BetterZip does have automatic encoding detection built in, but at times the filename encoding of Windows zip archives cannot be determined automatically and you need to tell BetterZip what to use. If your zip archive shows weird characters instead of correct filenames, close the archive, choose File > Open… from the menu, and use the encoding option in the file open window to select the correct encoding
- Better progress bar behavior during extraction of tar based archives

Bug Fixes
- The encoding detector (not related to the zip filename encoding mentioned above) in the preview sidebar didn’t always work correctly for text files
- When creating a multi-volume rar archive and the specified volume size was larger than the resulting archive, an error was displayed
- When previewing a folder in the archive and having a preview rule setup for “*”, a subsequent drag and drop extraction of that folder could fail
