I've added a new program called Zip Manager to my website. This freeware program acts as a pointer driven front end for the Zip and Unzip programs, to make them a bit easier to use.
Written as a follow up to the Zip and Unzip short series in QL Today, this program is a menu driven front end system, based on my Q-Trans program. It requires Window Manager 2 (uses System Palette colour themes) which means you must have SMSQ/E version 3 or later, or QDOS with pointer environment version 2 or later. You can add or delete files to or from a selected zip archive, and delete or view files. If you use FileInfo 2, Zip Manager is aware of that and so viewing may be achieved via the file associations defined. If you have a favourite editor or viewer program such as QD or S-Edit, you can set up Zip Manager to fire up that program to view files contained in zip files. Zip Manager lets you choose whether filename paths or just pure filenames are stored, lets you add password protection to new Zip files if required, and even control whether Zip processes sub-directories when adding to zip files. Zip Manager is available to download from my website at: http://www.dilwyn.uk6.net/arch/index.html -- Dilwyn Jones _______________________________________________ QL-Users Mailing List http://www.q-v-d.demon.co.uk/smsqe.htm
