gollark: Somehow designing the CLI is harder than writing the actual archiver code.
gollark: Discord bots are easy, machine learning is less easy.
gollark: *Do* you think I should actually store the compressed size? It would require either compressing to a temporary file and concatting it on later, or leaving some space in the pre-file-header bit to write it in after it's been compressed.
gollark: I "fixed" it, I just needed to enable single frame mode.
gollark: Arguably I should have some sort of "compressed size" field on it, but that would be work, so *instead* I'll just not do that and add on a length thing if it ever becomes necessary to not zstd-encode files.
