- + Added "BatchUnpack" mode. Really great thank's to Mateusz Brsostek for
- idea and help in coding this feature ... This mode dramatically increases
- speed of extracting groups of files from archives. Especially from archives
- packed in "solid" mode. Previous version of MultiArc HAVE TO extract one file
- per one call of archiving utility, because WCX API didn't allow other way. This
- version uses improved algorithm of extraction. To use it - please activate key
- "BatchUnpack" in corresponding section of multiarc.ini and add new key -
- "ExtractWithPath" - where you MUST put command line for call your archiver in
- "extract with pathes" mode. Currently this changes did for JAR, IMP and CAB addons
- in current multiarc distribution. If you want do this for others - you are welcome
- - edit corresponding addon as described above and send me - I include it in next
- distribution. To deactivate - just set BatchUnpack to 0.
