ARJDISP.DOC November 1994
New to ARJ 2.42 is a feature that allows a programmer to use ARJ,
DEARJ, or ARJSFX within an application in such a way as to allow the
programmer significant control over the ARJ display output.
It is possible to inhibit all ARJ/DEARJ/ARJSFX screen output and to
build a display program that ARJ/DEARJ/ARJSFX will use to display a
graphical output of the installation progress. This will produce a
more professional looking application.
The main drawback to this new display feature is that of speed. The
speed degradation is most noticeable with archives with many small
files. For single diskette archives, this should not be a major
problem.
To see how all this works in practice, you should execute the
ARJDISP.BAT batch file and follow its instructions. This feature is
also available in the large ARJSFX (self-extractor) module.
The C source code and documentation for the ARJ$DISP.EXE program
will be provided to registered ARJ users as part of the registered
ARJ software diskette.
Please note that the use of ARJ in a business, government, or
institutional environment requires either an internal use license or
a distribution license.
