What is new in Kumquat 1.2.0

### One tool instead of a hundred converter websites

**Archives**
- Open and extract almost anything: **RAR / RAR5**, 7z, ZIP, TAR (gz, bz2, xz, zst), ISO, DMG, CAB, PKG, DEB, CPIO, LZH, including multi-volume sets.
- Password-protected ZIPs (AES and classic), and Russian file names from Windows-made archives come out right instead of garbled.
- Create ZIP (optionally with an AES-256 password), 7z, TAR.*, DMG and ISO; compress a single file to gz, bz2, xz or zst.
- List an archive's contents or test its integrity without extracting.
- Safe by default: archives that try to write outside their folder are refused, and suspiciously huge "zip bombs" ask first.
- RAR is read-only: creating RAR archives is restricted by the RAR license.

**Folders**
- Drop a whole folder: convert everything inside by kind (*Images → JPG*, *Video → MP4*, *Documents → PDF*) into a mirrored "(converted)" folder.
- Batch: compress, strip metadata, OCR all scans, all images into one PDF or a collage, flatten nested folders, folder report.

**New formats**
- Camera RAW (DNG, CR2, CR3, NEF, ARW, RAF, ORF, RW2), JPEG XL and PSD as input.
- ICO and ICNS output: favicons and app icons from any image.
- FB2 e-books ↔ EPUB, PDF, DOCX and more.
- JSON ↔ YAML ↔ XML ↔ plist ↔ CSV.
- ASS/SSA subtitles.
