Ah, good ol' Microsoft Office. Taken advantage of their documents being a renamed .zip format to send forbidden attachments to myself via email lol

On the flip side, there's stuff like the Audacity app, that saves each audio project as an SQLite database 😳

Also .jar files. And good ol' winamp skins. And CBZ comics. And EPUB books. And Mozilla extensions. And APK apps. And...

cbz is literally just a renamed zip

Btw, you can create "chapters" by creating folders. Easy to automate with a loop.

a lot of the time i handle it manually since i try to pack things in "volumes" that most closely mimic physical releases, and writing the code to get that information would be slower than just looking it up manually

so, for example, the first volume of bleach has 7 chapters, so i'd pack those 7 chapters together into one cbz, the second volume in another cbz, etc.
