- MultiArc plugin for Windows Commander
-
- WARNING!!! This is beta version - and you use it on your own risk!!!
-
- What it does:
-
- It allows to view, extract and modify contents of archives that is not currently
- supported by Win Commander i.e. JAR or IMP. This plugin transforms commands, that
- WC do into the corresponding external archiver calls.
-
- You can add support for you favorite archiver by yourself - just edit
- multiarc.ini file.
-
- Some ideas was "stolen" 8-) from FAR file manager by Eugene Roshal. Thank
- you, Eugene - you write a GREAT program but I prefer GUI applications in
- GUI environment. 8-)
-
- KNOWN BUGS:
- 1) Now "also pack path names" mode is ON always - files ALWAYS packed
- with path names.
- 2) Progress bar that WC show during long time archive processes - is
- a not REAL percentage. Becasue I have no information about it from archiving
- process and have to use very dumb algorithm to calculate it. I hope
- to beatify this in next release.
-
- If you have any suggestions about functionality or want to report me
- some bugs - feel free contact of me at imker@gmx.li.
