- Short: Use the good extractor for an archive.
- Author: cfc@iname.com
- Uploader: cfc@iname.com
- Version: 1.0
- Type: util/arc
- Distribution: Freeware
-
- It's a five minutes tool that you can use to extract several archive.
- I use this tool as a ToolManager dock object to extracting archive
- with a simple icon drag. Extract always in ram (It's not a feature but
- read again the first sentence...).
-
- Requirement:
-
- OS3+ (use datatypes)
- archive datatypes descriptors installed (can be found in /util/dtype/clidt.lha).
- several archive extractor (lha, lzx, unzip, gzip, tar).
-
-
- Feature:
-
- Can extract lha, lzx, zip, gzip, tar-gzip archives.
- Use datatypes to identify archives.
-
-
- Usage:
-
- it's a command-line tool but you should use it with ToolManager.
- option: -o Enable output of extractors.
- -x??? x position of a window that's say "Extract...".
- -y??? y position of the same window.
- You must specify -x and -y if you want the little window.
-
- My usage:
-
- In the ToolManager exec object prefs:
- [Exec Type]: Shell
- [Command]: c:WbUnArc -x500 -y10
- [Arguments]: Checked
- [Current Directory]: Ram:
-
- That's all! You can use this exec object as a dock object, a menu-item or an appicon.
- With a dock, you have just to drop archive on a dock to extract it.
-
- Install:
- Copy WbUnArc where you want (c: for example).
- Check that lha and other are in your path (if they are in c:, it's ok).
-
- If you have a problem or if you want i spent more time on this little tool, mail-me.
