I got annoyed with the missing size report in the most recent kkrunchy, so I implemented it:

More patches may follow.

yeah!

it's working like the good old previous version?

ho btw the Assembly version was the best in term of final filesize but the slowest one to decrunch...

Given the commit history in the repo, it should be relatively straightforward to port this to other versions. :-) Sorry, I never even considered that people might prefer other versions than the one that produced the smallest executable.

I would have never though somebody actually cares about the decrunching time on modern platforms really.

visy: clearly, I prefer when my prods loads immediatly, even if the final exe got some more kilobytes :)

As example, I packed my little demo from Revision 2013 with kkrunchy, I used an old version (not ASM one, and not the "kk7" too) because the demo unpack immediatly and the difference of size wasn't really important for a demo :)

Why I packed? ho I like the fact that the demo sized lesser than the music :D

rez, wouldn't something "simple" like UPX work just as well then? Less false positives on virus scanners, too.

You could also just add an unpacked exe file to the final release archive since it would be nice to not have to make exceptions for virus scanners.

nice :)

Preacher makes a great point. I often wish there was an unpacked version of the exe for 4k and 64k prods. Sure, it's possible to set up an excluded folder somewhere that doesn't get virus scanned, but it would certainly make life easier for a lot of people.

Glad Revival has done some work on Kkrunchy (and secretly hoping he does a bit more in future) ;)
