This switch attempts to transform zpaqfranz into zpaq. That is, it disables advanced features and makes the generated output as similar as possible to that of zpaq. It has two main uses: with the 'a' (add) command, where it essentially creates archives in the standard zpaq format (and is therefore, incidentally, faster than zpaqfranz). With the 'l' (list) command, it generates output that is essentially identical at the binary level to zpaq. The purpose is to facilitate usage by third-party programs that are accustomed to zpaq output, simply by adding this switch.
- append
This switch has multiple uses. With the 'a' (add) command, it performs a double write-only pass and is used with WORM anti-ransomware systems. Essentially, it performs an initial compression of the archives without storing them. Once all necessary information has been determined, it proceeds to create the archive WITHOUT making any kind of backward SEEK. In certain systems (like Unix), this allows the creation of files that cannot be attacked by ransomware, as the system prevents any modification to a file, except for appending data at the end. It is a rather delicate system, as you can imagine. In such cases, ask for explicit help for more details. In other contexts, this switch has a different meaning, particularly with the 'cp' and 'r' (robocopy) commands. In this case, it allows a copy process to be interrupted halfway and resumed from the point where it left off, instead of starting over. It is, of course, used for copying .zpaq files. Let’s take a concrete example. I write a certain number of files created with zpaqfranz on Windows, inside the folder d:\backup. Now I want to make an additional copy, for example on a NAS. I use, for instance, the robocopy command. However, this will always start from the beginning, meaning it will transfer the entire .zpaq file to the NAS. The 'r' command with the -append switch, on the other hand, will only send the data added since the last copy, making it significantly faster.
