Forums Feature Suggestions Support for compressed channel lists?

Do you think it could be added? These are pure text files, and on bigger network, they're huge - and after a few months of visiting different networks, they'll add up to quite a lot... I just looked into my Channels dir, and it has 92 MB of text files in it. The QuakeNet.txt list alone is 9 MB.

you can use the $compress and $decompress functions to quickly compress your channel list files.

//echo -a $compress(efnet.txt) will return '1' if it succeeds, and efnet.txt will be compressed.
like-wise for $decompress(efnet.txt)

I suppose now that mIRC supports zlib, a checkbox could be added to the Channel List dialog.
