Again I come to file_id.diz thingies :-)

Start your configer for dopus, and go to filetypes. Pick (for example)
lha.archive. In the event list choose USER2, and enter the following:

AmigaDOS    C:LHA x {fu} FILE_ID.DIZ ram: >nil:
AmigaDOS    C:ECHO >>ram:FILE_ID.DIZ ""
AmigaDOS    C:TYPE ram:FILE_ID.DIZ
AmigaDOS    C:DELETE ram:FILE_ID.DIZ >nil:

Tick OUTPUT TO FILE as flag, and set CLOSE DELAY to -1.

Now make a button labeled ID.DIZ. Enter Command     User2 as an entry,
and set DO ALL FILES flag. Close delay should be -1...

Return to opus, pick an LHA archive (with a file_id.diz in it), click on
show id, and voila... There it is...

MAGIC !

Return to filetypes, pick (example) DMS archive, and enter in EVENT USER
2 this:

AmigaDOS    C:DMSDESCRIPT x ram:FILE_ID {fu} >nil:
AmigaDOS    C:ECHO >>ram:FILE_ID ""
AmigaDOS    C:TYPE ram:FILE_ID
AmigaDOS    C:DELETE ram:FILE_ID >nil:

set OUTPUT TO FILE as a flag, en close delay to -1.

Back to OPUS, pick a dms.archive, click on button created with LHA
(ID.diz ?), and again...VOILA ! There is your file-id...


You can edit USER2 for any archive that supports the unpacking of a
specific name (see their doc-files), and read file_id.diz on that file
with the same button !!
AS LONG AS YOU ADD THE CORRECT COMMAND TO USER2 IN THE FILETYPES !

Let me know what you think, and if you use it (and why not...?).
