Usage:
SEES [wildcarded filename]
SEES is an interactive program for viewing the contents of ZIP, ARC, PAK,
LZH (LHA too), LBR, ZOO, DWC, HYP and ARJ archives. It also allows you to
select certain files and extract them, optionally to a specified directory.
SEES will first give you an alphabetically sorted file selection window,
from which you can select the (ZIP-, ARC- etc.) archive you want to
view/extract. (If you didn't specify a filename at the command line, that is).
You can move around using the arrow keys, PgUp, PgDn, HOME and END. Pressing
a character will move the cursor to a file starting with that character.
Pressing RETURN on a directory name will change to that directory.
Using Ctrl-D, you can switch to other drives.
Pressing RETURN on an archive will select that archive.
ESC aborts the program.
Once an archive is selected, you get a file-selection window for the files
INSIDE the archive. At the start, all files are selected.
You can move around using the arrow keys, PgUp, PgDn, HOME and END.
You can select/deselect files using the INS-key or the SPACEBAR.
"+" selects all files, "-" deselects all files. ESC aborts.
Pressing RETURN will cause the program to start extracting the selected
files from the archive. If you want, you can extract them to a different
directory (use F9 in that case).
IMPORTANT:
This program is based on SEE 2.4. I'm afraid it is rather simple as far as
the extraction itself is concerned: it will just use existing de-archivers
in a simple call. It will NOT locate these de-archivers: it assumes you
have them, and assumes that they are stored in directories with occur in
your PATH. The commands that are executed for different archives are:
ZIP : PKUNZIP archive FILE(S)
ARJ : ARJ e archive FILE(S)
HYP : HYPER -x archive FILE(S)
ARC : PKXARC -x archive FILE(S)
PAK : PKXARC -x archive FILE(S)
LZH : LHA e archive FILE(S)
DWC : DWC x archive FILE(S)
LBR : LUE archive FILE(S)
ZOO : ZOO -e archive FILE(S)
In future versions I'll arrange something better.
