ZIM archives can be split in multiple files. This is necessary to be able to store big (over 4GB for example) ZIM archives to limited file systems (like FAT32). That said, the files can be of any size, but the naming is really important. The ZIM files should be named like following (the file name extensions matter): ''foobar.zimaa, foobar.zimab, foobar.zimac''... | ZIM archives can be split in multiple files.

<code>pathPtrPos</code> was initially called <code>urlPtrPos</code> (and <code>path</code> in dirent structure was called <code>url</code>). In April 2024, we changed the wording from <code>url</code> to <code>path</code> as it better conveys the fact that we are storing a path for the entry and not a full url (with scheme, host...). Note that this is just a wording change and the semantic has not changed at all. Implementations do not need to change anything (except a potential renaming of variables to better follow the spec). | |||
