[NumberOne]

i´ve added 3 new packers plugins but only one is shown when i try to pack some archivos to .iso or cab. this options are missimg but in the ini file are included:

[PackerPlugins]
iso=192,C:\totalcmd\wcx_iso\iso.wcx
nfo=23,C:\totalcmd\catalogmaker\CatalogMaker.wcx
img=192,C:\totalcmd\wcx_iso\iso.wcx
cab=68,C:\totalcmd\wcx_cabwcx\Cab.wcx
[Packer]

Hello!
I tested adding a second packer-plugin... This plugin appears alright in the "Pack" dialog, in the small combobox (open it via the [>>] button).
I tested under Win98 SE only...

Best regards,

It seems that iso... and cab... works fine with already existing files
But they are not make for creating archives.
Is it true ?

What Vansumsen is correct.
Not all packer plugins can create new archives or edit archives. You should read the documentation of each plugins to find out what it's feartures are.

Tip:
the code in front of the packer will also tell you about it's features:
iso=192,C:\totalcmd\wcx_iso\iso.wcx
192 means: 128 (allow searching for text in archives) + 64 (detect archive type by content)

Hello!
Right! The CABs creation under Win9x needs an independant program (you can find a link to a such one - in French only, sorry - from the TC Tutorial >> Archives handling under "What are archives?"). It can't be used as a TC addon, unfortunately...
To invoke it: a button in the button-bar...
Please, check the post about TC Tutorial (English)

okok now i understand....i thought it was any other problem

i use winXP

the one cab program i´m interested for is the one which allows modify the cabs from comercial archives: i6comp v0.20 - InstallShield v6.x CAB Tool

but it´s only usable whit ms-dos. i wonder if this program exists as .wcx or will exist in the future

Just have a look to
(Cab file maker - 210 Kb // 215 552 bytes)
For Windows9x, ME, NT4, 2000 and XP Download Cabmaker
http://www.minostudio.com/software/apps/cabmaker.exe

It is free

but the cabs i reffer to are opened whit the "Data.hdr" because all cabs are cutted and each one recorded in a diferent cd
