I see you implemented a new undocumented function, or at least i didnt found it it :-)
The backupped zip is compressed with GZ to save space, thats ok.
But i send the nzb sometime to other people and i dont want to have to path to where i saved it saved in the gz.

It was in the release notes.
I couldn't get the path out of the GZ file, Python library problem. I'll check again.

Found a work-around. Will be solved in next Beta.

I prefer not to have my nzbs gzipped. Could we have a Config/Switches item to turn this on/off please?

We have too many options already.
GZ is a format that's supported by all compression utilities (including WinZip, Winrar and 7zip).
SABnzbd can handle nzb.gz files perfectly well.
What's wrong with saving some diskspace?
