I was just suggesting Archive_Tar because Archive_Zip looks deserted. ;-) But if anyone wants to fix it up, that's cool too. I wasn't aware that Windows cannot handle tar (or tar.gz). I just know WinZip does it, Winrar and on MacOSX there's no concern either. There are also multiple freeware tools to do that but of course we *should* focus on what most users have installed. I guess it wouldn't hurt to make this configurable. ;-) Till _______________________________________________ List info: http://lists.roundcube.net/dev/
