Springy or BetterZip look better. I know they're shareware, but Springy doesn't nag you for being unregistered.

Suggested features are
1. Be able to add either multiple files and/or folders at the same time with the click of only one button. RadicalSqueeze has two different buttons, one for folder selection, and another for file selection...and only one file or folder at a time.
2. A preferences pane would be nice to adjust whether to zip or tar instead of being asked every time.
3. Show the archived file in the Finder when complete.
4. RadicalSqueeze-specific file icons for .zip, .tar, and .tar.gz.
5. Be able to drag and drop a group of files onto the RadicalSqueeze icon to automatically launch the application and archive the files.
All and all, not a bad application, but it lacks the customizability that some users (such as myself) would enjoy to have. But if you do not care so much about having all the power, and just want to get the job done, then this application should work pretty well for you.

FYI, If you have a previous version of Stuffit, they regularly have "specials" for $29 upgrades to the latest version of 8.02 which include all of the formats of RadicalSqueeze and a lot more with contextual menus, Magic Menu, Stuff and Mail ,Self-Extracting, BinHex, MacBinary, LHa, Bz, Stuffit and UUEncode by just renaming, encryption, etc. Anotherwords, Stuffit does it all with a better interface for another $15. This seems like a lot better value to me and includes formal support.
in my opinion, given its current feature set, at a $15 price point, this product does not represent good value, no matter how well it might work, given what else is already in the marketplace.
