Yeah, a bug had crept in where C128 with non-burst capable devices
only compressed the first file correctly, all others became
one byte (or 255) in size.

The newest version tacks ",s" to the end of the filename for seq
files (and ",u" for usr, ",r" for rel) to fix this. Currently
no space is reserved for these extra chars so the filename size
should be max 14 characters. This will be fixed for the next
version.

PuZip is still work on progress. Releasing a new version each
day is definitely something I wouldn't like to do normally.
But at least by using it you will find the things that need
improvement.
