Some time ago, I wrote a simple plugin for Thunar to integrate file-roller (or another archive manager) into Thunar and planned to include it with Thunar by default (like thunar-uca). But I don't think this needs to be in Thunar, so I separated it, see the attached file.
It's similar to the file-roller nautilus plugin, with a few differences. Now there are two ways: (a) Import it as goodie into the xfce-goodies repository and maintain it as separate package (probably adding support for KDE archiver and/or xarchive). (b) Get in contact with the current file-roller maintainer and import it into file-roller (it's easy, just the three source files, and you're done). Personally, I don't really care. For me, it's fine as it is now, and I'd have no problem if it would be integrated into file-roller (and thereby depend on file-roller). But I know that for example Xubuntu does not plan to include file-roller by default, so Xubuntu users wouldn't benefit from this. And there are probably quite a lot of users around that don't use GNOME (file-roller depends on too many parts of GNOME unfortunately). So my question: Is anybody interested to maintain this plugin as part of xfce-goodies and probably extend it with support for other archive managers and/or add some other nifty features? The plugin is really simple. It'd also need an icon then, as it's currently using the file-roller icon. greets, Benedikt
