- Is anybody out there working on a drag and drop Compression/Decompression tool
- at the moment.
-
- What I had in mind was something like what I have used on an Archemides. An
- icon on the desk top which you can drag file(s) on to and it will decompress
- them for you or if they are not compressed it will compress them for you
- perhaps with a prompt for the compression method, or else it would just select
- the most approiate for the file type.
-
- There is a lot of interest in a project like this, at least down under. So if
- noone is presently working on one would someone like a little project?
-
- Thanks
- Mark Harvey
