7-Zip 9.20

Après une bonne année et demie de développement depuis la dernière version stable (v4.65) et entrecoupé de plusieurs versions bêta, voici que le logiciel concurrent à WinRAR/WinZip mais totalement gratuit et open-source, j'aime nommée 7-Zip, arrive en version 9.20 et propose le support de nouveaux formats d'archives, des performances de compressions accrues par contre l'interface reste la même, c'est-à-dire... simple.
