Exclamation Support for PIM archives

How about to add support for PIM archives? It supported by the PIM archiver and have a special multimedia compression (BMP, TIF, WAV). Since 7-Zip haven't such feature I think it's worth to add this.

Well, once the format is finalised (full release - not alpha/beta) this might be interesting.

Like all compression formats, it really depends on how popular it becomes.

just tested with powerarchivers 7zip ultra against pim

what a discrace pim format lies about his test resuts on there site, it is good for some formats and bad on others

I tried foilders i tried 1 file and i tried several different combinations

several time s it beat 7zip ultra other times it lagged behind it

good format but bit risky
