zip files automatically to opposite directory tree

Post by *Matrix »

When zipping files I used to be able to automatically create and locate a zipped archive in the opposite directory panel.

I may have missed the obvious but has this option been taken out or is it still available in the latest version of total commander?

It's still the default.

Maybe you've got a faulty [Ctrl] key? Using [Alt]+[F5] (or "cm_packFiles") with [Ctrl]- modifier packs into the source pane (onstead of the target pane).

THanks sheepdog

your axactly right, what I did is created a hotkey with the control key Z and this puts the zip files in the source directory. I have been putting up with this for, I dunno, mabe three years. Bugger
