Packing and unpacking in separate thread idea

[horizon]

So I can perform other operations. During this action. Currently I have to wait until this operation is finished...

Wincmd.ini
[Configuration]
AlwaysPackInBackground=0
1: zip in background
2: zip+external packers in background
3: like 2, but run external packers minimized

AlwaysUnpackInBackground=0
1: unzip in background
2: unzip+external unpackers in background
3: like 2, but run external unpackers minimized

Thank you! But this only relates to zip or extarnal packers, doesn't it? How about other by-tc-internaly-processed archives?

This works for the actual packing but....
- if you pack 10.000 files (like websites/forums/other web solutions, they contain lots of files with only a few kB each). The packer starts calculating, if this ends then it goes to the backgound.
- if you chose multiple files for each dir. Then there is no background option available and it also doesn't go to the background if you adjust the mentioned settings.
