Zoom  solves  the problem of the many different types of files found on
your Workbench and the many viewers/readers/players they require you to
run  all the time, usually via the CLI using syntax you can't remember.

Now  you  can  simply drop everything onto the Zoom appicon and it will
identify  the filetype and run an appropriate command, specified by you
using the preferences. Zoom is easy to use and powerful, with some cool
features like:

 1) Identification via fileid.library (600+ filetypes recognized)

 2) JIT system: just-in-time file decrunching through XFD

 3) Can be run through the Workbench Tools menu

 4) Simple MUI preferences makes configuration a breeze
