ZIP Support (so I can finally retire "PowerDersk Pro")

[LittleBiG]

The dialog after clicking on "Add to Zip..." context menu preselects the whole filename. It would be better, if it selected only the filename without the .zip extension.

Yup, done.

Thanks for enhancing zip_extract() .
Now I can extract specific files (checked by user) to current folder using this simple script, just select a zip file and run the script:

Code: Select all

//Create list
  $ziplist=zip_list(,"|",0); 
//Remove Tabs
  $ziplist=replace($ziplist,"<tab>", ""); 
//Create input select window
  $extract=inputselect("Check Items to extract to current folder",$ziplist,"|",3,,,,"<curitem>"); 
//Extract checked files to current folder
  zip_extract (,<curpath>,$extract,"|");

Or this one liner, :

Code: Select all

    zip_extract (,<curpath>,inputselect("Check Items to extract to current folder",replace(zip_list(,"|",0),"<tab>", ""),"|",3,,,,"<curitem>"),"|");

Cool!

Next version you can get the generic icons:
zip_extract (,<curpath>,inputselect("Check Items to extract to current folder",replace(zip_list(,"|",0),"<tab>", ""),"|",11,,,,"<curitem>"),"|");

Thanks for generic option.
BTW, I am getting inconsistencies with some zip files where i see only alert icons.
Also, with Marco's unofficial beta archive which is shared via dropbox I see first item Catalogdefault name missing and alert icon. Is it because of the long name or something?

[serendipity]

Deleted duplicate post.

Yes, I guess it's due to overlong filename.

[serendipity]

Yes, I guess it's due to overlong filename.

But if i copy the file to another location (desktop or my docs) and try that script (or simply Zip view - F11) it seems alright. So i am guessing its the long path with dropbox folder. Can you confirm this?

[admin]

Can you post the link to such a problem archive?

Not sure if Marco is around, so will share one from his archive:

Works fine here.

[serendipity]

Works fine here.

Here too, but if you move it to a path which is overlong then it does not. I guess there is a limit.

After some testing the magic number for the path+file name seems to be 406 characters until which all is fine, if i have one more extra character i start to lose items from zip view (starting from top).

OK, ZipFolder technology is a shell function and all shell functions fail when paths get > 260.

Thought so, no big deal.
