Zip Extract 0.1d6
-----------------
Zip Extract is a Tabby utility that extracts 'zipped' packets (usually received
from Ms-Dos based Hosts)
The istallation is very simple:
Tabby Users:
- copy Zip Extract in the same folder of TabbyNet and the other Tabby
applications.
- open Tabby Maint and modify the sequence of applications for each events
replacing ArcMail Extract with Zip Extract. Zip Extract will launch ArcMail
Extract if the packet is not 'zipped'.
- if you want to always run ArcMail Extract after Zip Extract, write "1" into STR #1134,
write "0" if you want to run ArcMail Extract only if Zip Extract can't expand some files.
- if you receive crashmail calls you should modify also the STR #305 of TabbyNet
- if you use Tabby Robot for crashmail you must modify the STR# 301 resource
of Tabby Robot replacing ArcMail Extract with Zip Extract.
Copernicus Users:
- as released Zip Extract is set to work with Tabby. To use Zip Extract with
Copernicus you need to modify these STR resources, usually you need to change
'Tabby' with 'Common Folder' and the 'Generic' file to 'Common'.
- STR #1128 : pathname of the "Extract Mail" file (partial path is ok)
- STR #1129 : pathname of the "Mail Received" file (partial path is ok)
- STR #1130 : application to launch if Zip Extract can't expand some files
(usually ArcMail Extract) . It is always launched if STR #1134 = "1"
- STR #1131 : pathname of the "Work File" file, it MUST BE in the same folder
as "Extract Mail"
- STR #1132 : pathname of the log file.
- STR #1133 : pathname of the 'Generic' file.
- STR #1134 : if "1" Zip Extract always launch the application in STR #1130
if "0" Zip Extract launch that applications only if it cannot expand some files.
Shareware fee: if you like Zip Extract and you find it useful, I have set the
shareware fee to $10, I have a few other ideas for Fidonet utilities, your registration can help
me to found the time to develop them ;-).

HISTORY
-------
v.0.1d6: - Now checks StackSpace() before starting, Zip Extract tries to set the Stack to at least
16K, if it fails it exits and signals the error in the log file. In this case it will
never launch ArcMail Extract even if the STR# 1134 is set to '1'.
v.0.1d5: - Recompiled with Think C 5.0.1
+ Added STR #1134 to always launch the application set by STR #1130 after Zip Extract
+ Zip Extract now doesn't overwrite existing files while unpacking, it renames the
new file and write the new name in the Tabby Log.
v.0.1d4 : - Fixed a bug in the 'exploding' code (it caused some 'skip file' errors
on files compacted with a (very) old version of PKZip).
- Added STR #1133 to change also the pathname of 'Generic' file.
v.0.1d3 : - Fixed bug in launch code under Finder
- now uses Tabby Log file
- added STR resources for Copernicus compatibility
- fixed wrong 'no free space on volume' errors
v.0.1 : - first release
