- What is PacShell?
- -----------------
- PacShell is a tool, that makes it much easier to handle archives
- in different formats and aims to standardize it's usage.
- At this time, archives of the formats Arj, Arc, Diffy, Lha, Lzx,
- Rar, Tar, Zip an Zoo are supported.
- PacShell can read this archives by it's own and displays the
- contents in a window. So you can select files with the mouse to
- extract or add them from/to an archive.
-
- Installation
- ------------
- To install PacShell, you only need to copy or extract everything
- to a single directory. PacShell does not need Assigns or special
- libraries.
- After starting PacShell the first time, you must probably change
- the pathes of the archivers, which are configured to c: by default.
- For this, the easiest way is to press F6, when PacShell has
- started. The Configuration dialog appears and there you can edit
- the pathes. When ready, select the Save-Button and from now on the
- changes are available.
- If you want to use the English documentation within PacShell
- (Help Button), you must copy it to the PacShell directory, because
- it has the same name as the German documentation.
-
- Diffy
- -----
- I decided, to supply Diffy to this package, because it is
- supported by PacShell and it is one of my programs. Probably I
- will release updates of PachShell as a Patch and then you already
- have the tool you need to patch PacShell.
-
- Documentation
- -------------
- Now the English documentation, for PacShell and for Diffy, is
- complete and can be found in the directory 'English Doc'.
-
- Shareware
- ---------
- PacShell is Shareware and when you regularly use it you must
- register. The registration fee is 30 DM or 25 US$.
