Voodoo-X is MUI-based front-end for Dirk Stoecker's powerful
unarchiving system - xadmaster.library. Unlike other dearchiver
front-ends, Voodoo-X doesn't depend on the archiver commands (such
as LZX, LHA, DMS, etc.) being in the C: drawer nor does it require
complicated command line setups for these commands. This is because
XAD does all the hard work. :-)
Voodoo-X allows you to quickly browse an archive's contents and
view individual files (with multiview) like pictures and documents
just by double clicking your mouse. This method of browsing archives
proves to be highly effective since you don't need to get your hands
dirty by extracting files to temporary locations such as Ram:.
Voodoo-X does all that for you.
With the help of XAD, Voodoo-X supports more archiver formats than
you can wave a stick at, Amiga and non-Amiga, these include:
LZX, LHA, ZIP, WinZip-MS EXE, DMS, DMS-SFX, Tar, GZip, RAR,
SuperDuper, CrunchDisk, xDisk, PackDev, Zoom, Shrink and many many
more...
xadmaster.library is a modular system and will support even more
archivers in the future.
Note:
Voodoo-X doesn't actually write disk-based archives (like DMS,
xMash, etc.) back to disk, but instead examines them to see if they
are OFS or FFS formatted, if they are, it then allows you to browse
through the contents of them and retrieve individual files.
Voodoo-X can also retrieve files from inside standard FFS formatted
(i.e AmigaDOS) ADF files, OFS, FFS, DirCache, International,
Double-Density (aka DD) and high-density (aha HD) disks formats
are all supported.
