[BUG] option "Unpack each archive...." not saved

Post by *ts4242 »

When unpacking file i mark Unpack each archive to a separate subdir in Unpack dialog box but when unpacking another file i found this option clear. Is it a bug or feature?

beside that when click Help button the help file opened on Dialog box: Unpack topic but Unpack each archive to a separate subdir is not described

This is intentional, the option isn't remembered. Normally you should select all the archives you want to unpack and then check this option.

I always need this option to be checked, so it is annoying to manually check it each time i do unpacking files

Can we have an option in wincmd.ini to choose whether we like it be remembered or not?

To simplify your life: you can edit the language file (that string about unpacking to correcponding directories) so that after pressing Alt+F9 you can press i.e. Alt+- (- is right under F9 at my place) and get the option ticked :)

How far up on the list has this wish climbed by now? :wink:
Any chance it will be implemented?

Cheers,
Karl

Yes, please.
chmod a+x /bin/laden -- Allows anyone the permission to execute /bin/laden

How do I un-overwrite all my data?

I don't know why but I was so under the impression that this feature would be available with the v7.5pb3 release. I must have read something somewhere in the forum and probably misinterpreted it.

Anyhow, Christian, please add the requested option to the wincmd.ini soon. It shouldn't require that much of of your time to get many users a lot happier. :)

Nevertheless, thank you very much for the new beta release.

Please consider also following settings for remembering (in wincmd.ini):
- path for unpack (left or right window)
- unpack path if is stored with files
- overwrite existing files
- unpack each archive to a separate subdirs
- mask files for unpack

I find those useful for making buttons on button bar.
Often I use this function for unpacking into directory with the same name with archives and are many checks to do.

Best wishes,
Eugen

I think following cases for such option needed: 0 (don't remember), 1 (don't remember and always checked - as for now), 2 (don't remember but checked if multiple files selected), 4 (remember and unchecked), 5 (remember and checked).
