Short: 2.0b - filesystem, use lha as directory
Author: Rafael.DHalleweyn@rug.ac.be

Type: util/arc
ARCHandler 2.0b
=================
ARCHandler is a filesystem that allows you to use lha-archives as if they
where directories. The files in the archives can be used like normal files:
you can read, view and/or execute them.
ARCHandler currently requires an Amiga running Kickstart/Workbench 2.04 or
newer and 1Meg of memory. Although ARCHandler works with floppydisks, a
harddisk is recommended.
To extract files from archives, ARCHandler uses the 'LhA' (© Stefan
Boberg), both the evaluation and registered version work.
Major changes since release 2.0a:
-Complete support for six actions:
ACTION_CREATE_DIR [CreateDir()];
ACTION_DELETE_OBJECT [DeleteFile()];
ACTION_RENAME_OBJECT [Rename()];
ACTION_SET_COMMENT [SetComment()];
ACTION_SET_DATE [SetFileData()] and
ACTION_SET_PROTECT [SetProtection()].
-Removed bug that was introduced in 2.0a: the number of archives in use
could become negative, this prevented ARCHandler from quitting.
-All windows and requesters are now build by my own layout engine. This has
resulted in some changes to the GUI.
-The archive preferences window now contains a cycle gadget to select the
type of archive recognition: filename, filename and contents, contents
only.
-LhA-archives with type 1 header weren't handled correctly.
-Changed FindCommand and PrefLanguage (commands used by Install script). I
hope this fixes problems with the Install script and different shells.
-When there is a problem with the underlying filesystem ('volume not
mounted', 'disk is full', ...) you should get the name of the volume with
the problem (instead of 'Volume Archives is write protected').
-FromARC didn't work, fixed.
-Danish and Finnish translations.
Check the included documentation for a complete list of changes.
