Shez is a SHELL program. It has a built-in archive LISTER, but to do the actual extraction, it requires the PKXARC, PKZIP, ZOO etc. programs to do the work. This is not what Derek Foster is after. What he wants is what I have in the action at the moment, but is causing some problems. I want to have a pick-list of files, inbuilt archive lister, *and inbuilt extraction* from that list. I have the (mostly C) sources for unzip, unzoo, unarc, unlzh - I need unpak. My main problem is that I have to try and integrate these with my file-list and windowing libraries, which are Turbo Pascal. I have a C to Pascal translator, but haven't really sussed out how it works. It's an evaluation copy, so I want to evaluate it before spending $$$. When this wonderful product is completed (couple of months perhaps), I'll upload to Simtel. Any comments gratefully received.
