- Zip Extract 0.1d6
- -----------------
-
- Zip Extract is a Tabby utility that extracts 'zipped' packets (usually received
- from Ms-Dos based Hosts)
-
- The istallation is very simple:
-
- Tabby Users:
-
- - copy Zip Extract in the same folder of TabbyNet and the other Tabby
- applications.
- - open Tabby Maint and modify the sequence of applications for each events
- replacing ArcMail Extract with Zip Extract. Zip Extract will launch ArcMail
- Extract if the packet is not 'zipped'.
- - if you want to always run ArcMail Extract after Zip Extract, write "1" into STR #1134,
- write "0" if you want to run ArcMail Extract only if Zip Extract can't expand some files.
- - if you receive crashmail calls you should modify also the STR #305 of TabbyNet
- - if you use Tabby Robot for crashmail you must modify the STR# 301 resource
- of Tabby Robot replacing ArcMail Extract with Zip Extract.
-
- Copernicus Users:
-
- - as released Zip Extract is set to work with Tabby. To use Zip Extract with
- Copernicus you need to modify these STR resources, usually you need to change
- 'Tabby' with 'Common Folder' and the 'Generic' file to 'Common'.
-
- - STR #1128 : pathname of the "Extract Mail" file (partial path is ok)
- - STR #1129 : pathname of the "Mail Received" file (partial path is ok)
- - STR #1130 : application to launch if Zip Extract can't expand some files
- (usually ArcMail Extract) . It is always launched if STR #1134 = "1"
- - STR #1131 : pathname of the "Work File" file, it MUST BE in the same folder
- as "Extract Mail"
- - STR #1132 : pathname of the log file.
- - STR #1133 : pathname of the 'Generic' file.
- - STR #1134 : if "1" Zip Extract always launch the application in STR #1130
- if "0" Zip Extract launch that applications only if it cannot expand some files.
-
- Shareware fee: if you like Zip Extract and you find it useful, I have set the
- shareware fee to $10, I have a few other ideas for Fidonet utilities, your registration can help
- me to found the time to develop them ;-).

- HISTORY
- -------
- v.0.1d6: - Now checks StackSpace() before starting, Zip Extract tries to set the Stack to at least
- 16K, if it fails it exits and signals the error in the log file. In this case it will
- never launch ArcMail Extract even if the STR# 1134 is set to '1'.
- v.0.1d5: - Recompiled with Think C 5.0.1
- + Added STR #1134 to always launch the application set by STR #1130 after Zip Extract
- + Zip Extract now doesn't overwrite existing files while unpacking, it renames the
- new file and write the new name in the Tabby Log.
- v.0.1d4 : - Fixed a bug in the 'exploding' code (it caused some 'skip file' errors
- on files compacted with a (very) old version of PKZip).
- - Added STR #1133 to change also the pathname of 'Generic' file.
- v.0.1d3 : - Fixed bug in launch code under Finder
- - now uses Tabby Log file
- - added STR resources for Copernicus compatibility
- - fixed wrong 'no free space on volume' errors
- v.0.1 : - first release
