- Contained in the MicroPhone II 3.0 document are two XCMDs - Stuff and UnStuff.
- These XCMDs allow you to create Stuffit Deluxe archives as well as decompressing
- both Stuffit Deluxe/Classic and Stuffit 1.5.1 archives. They require the presence
- of the 'Stuffit Engine™' which is part of the Stuffit Deluxe package. If the
- Engine is not present, these XCMDs will not work, and will return an error
- in theResult.
-
- These are standard XCMDs and although I have only tested them in MicroPhone II
- and Hypercard, though there is no reason why they should not work with Supercard or
- other applications which support XCMDs and the standard callbacks.
-
- The XCMDs have the following syntax in version 1.0:
- Stuff archiveName, fileName, compressionType
- - archiveName is a full pathname for the new archive you want created.
- - fileName is a full pathname to a text file which contains a carriage
- return(CR) delimited list of files and folders to be archived.
- See the Example Batch file contained in this archive for an example.
- - compressionType is an integer representing which compression to use
- None = 0
- Faster = 1
- Fast = 2
- Better = 3
- UnStuff archiveName
- - archiveName is a full pathname for the archive you want unstuffed. The
- contents of the archive are placed into a new folder called
- 'archiveName Folder'. This is similar to QuickUnstuff and Magic Menu.
-
- The MicroPhone II 3.0 document includes scripts which show how to use the XCMDs
- and you are free to use these scripts as is, or modified to your needs in any
- documents that you wish. The document and the XCMDs are freely distributable, BUT
- may not be sold directly or with any other product without my permission.
- I do, however, give permission for user groups such as BMUG, BCS, NYMUG, etc. to
- include these in their software libraries and CD-ROM collections. This does not
- include for profit groups such as Educomp, though I do give permission to the folks
- at Somak Software.
