I got over that wish after using OpenUp a bit. I still wouldn't mind
having a table of contents browser that let you select individual files
to extract. (We get some pretty large archives sent to us at work
sometimes. A single set of test data can fill a CD or two, and I often
just want a little tiny part of it.)
the problem this tar files in general is that they have no useable
TOC when compressed...
that was the purpose behind xpak
(
http://www.stepwise.com/Software/xpak)... alas, nobody seems to be
willing/able to devote the time to write the code to use the spec
Has anyone out there already hacked OpenUp to have one or the other of
these features?
I was hacking at it yesterday, trying to get it to work with files with
uppercase extensions. (Someone sent me a "GRAEME.ZIP", and I had to go
to the command line to unpack it.)
this is fairly easy... just add them to the config plist, and then
add them also to the info.plist so the finder notices them
