Project Description

XArchive is a GUI frontend for command-line
archiving tools. It uses external executable
wrappers to communicate with the tools. It
consults a wrapper directory at startup to see
what types of files it supports, making adding
support for new archive formats a matter of
writing a wrapper for its tool and dropping it in
the wrappers directory. Wrappers are included for
TAR, RAR, ZIP, ARJ, 7ZIP, and ACE (extraction only
for ACE).

0.2.8-6

This version supports the addition of files to an archive using dragand drop. A few nice GUI cleanups were made.

0.2.8-4

This version allows searching of archive contents, creating extract directories if desired, and a few more interface clean-ups.

0.2.8-1

This release handles the extraction of password-protected archives,
fixes the handling of wrappers in the ~/.xarchive/wrappers directory,
and once again includes the ace wrapper.

0.2.6-3

This version has wrappers for viewing and extracting from .rpm and .deb files (modifying debs and RPMs should be done with the appropriate packaging tools to keep things sane). It also sports a much friendlier 'extract to' dialog, and the ability to remember the directory you opened your last xarchive in. On BSD machines, this version should compile nicely and use wrappers tailored for BSD tar and date tools (rather than the GNU ones).

0.2.4-2

This release awkifies the rar-wrap.sh, tar-wrap.sh, and zip-wrap.sh scripts, making them much easier to read, understand, and hopefully modify. The tab close button now keeps track of the current active archive, fixing a minor annoyance when closing a non-active archive. Finally, the selection of a directory in a rar archive now correctly selects only that directory's contents.
