Description
Please, add zlib/7z compression to resource files.
For instance, if I add a .txt file into a .qrc file you could save some bytes just compressing it with zlib.
When I do this:
QString myTxt ( ":/docs/myFile.txt" )
the implementation should decompress it in memory and return a QByteArray with the decompressed data.
That would help a lot not only with raw text files but also with some image formats like BMPs, etc... and also will help to hide data from strange eyes.
thx.
