I started this thread.. who wants to know whether there is any freeware that suffice one's need.

My Wish List...

1. Comprehensive RAR,ZIP and other Archive repair program...(In my computer, WinRAR only repairs some files)

2. Data Recovery Tool

3. DVD player with maximum tweakability. I find Cyberlink delivering most colorful images and Compatibility with DTS and Dolby and include 30FPS video playback for every DVD disk.


that's it for now..

My Wish list:-
1)A compressor program that has the sfx installer creation capability like WinRar, and has compressing power like 7-Zip

2)An non-adulterated version of GTA SA in which all the violence stuff and adult stuff is removed and can be played by a 4 yr old kid.

2. Data Recovery Tool

The best data recovery tools are actually "Free Softwares".
dd_rescue, TestDisk & Photorec are the ones I use.

That is not possible. GBs to MBs (if you mean 1GB to 900MB :D or a file with nothing at all i.e. just spaces or just single repeated character are doable). The files I have seen KGB compressed magically (the office 2007 in 1MB and others) were actually corrupted (i.e. did not contain the actual data).

Even 7-zip can compress great if modes are used wisely.

I don't know much about DVDs, but have you tried SMPlayer?

^ Tried SMplayer.. but the DI Cyberlink PowerDVD applies is not attainable. And not to mention.. It will not play a normal 24fps dvd @ 30fps.

Does 7zip not create good SFX archives?

ROFL! Try pacman. :D

7-zip cant split sfx achieves and cannot apply logos and icons to sfx archieves as WinRar can.

-A free layout software comparable to quark or indesign
-At least 10 more operating systems, on the lines of Linux, but each built using different considerations from the ground up

a software in which if we put random alphabets, it will make a valid word from them
eg. if we put gdiit it will give 'digit' and other combos....

You mean anagram?

Coz you can write a java program to produce anagrams (will be really complicated, but possible)

Recuva, 7zip, and MPC are enough IMO

squashfs-lzma -> 25% size i.e. 1024 MB -> 256 hey it fits on a business card CD ;-)
and smplayer ? yes these cds and [adult - kidding] movies.
my wishlist? will be Mathematica, it is "Teh" yes "Teh" and not "the" $hit, if you are into math stuffs. i want it for free. i dont like other huge price tag softies for math and octave is jizz slow compared to mathematica.
i would like mathematica x.x till eternity for free, and i am not speaking of mathematica player. its sucks. i need the beef.

Awesome video editor like Adobe Premiere and Sony Vegas.

An OS, with the user friendliness of Windows, and Security of Linux :)
