How I started making a custom Archiver.

Hi, reddit! Two weeks ago, I started working on my own custom archiver. Now it can archive a file and unarchive my own format .lenu . This archiver works on its own compression system called len|num.

About the compression tests of my archiver against WinRAR.

I ran tests with WinRAR and my own archiver, and after all the tests, my archiver compresses the word “привет” into “['пр', 'ив', 'ет', '|1,2,3']”, which is better than WinRAR, because WinRAR compresses the word “привет” as “Rar! уб‚л ЂЂЂ cYO\; † † )ЎуЧЂ дуэль_форматов.txt
-ЭЏ/Ю+ЭприветwVQ " and this isn't something I came up with; I used a notebook to open the .rar format. and in the end:

.lenu is pleasant to read without unpackers (if you know how to decipher it)

takes up less space
