Roshal +http://www.rarlab.com/ +See unrar/license.txt for licensing conditions + + + + +This is the RAR archiving VFS (Virtual File System) plugin for Tux Commander +file manager. It incorporates unrar sources, which are statically linked +thus no additional system libraries or utilities are required. This plugin +is pretty stable for normal use at the current version. + +Feature highlights: + * read-only support for RAR archives + * full support for Unix file and directory permissions + * password protected archives are supported + * multidisk archives support + * large files (> 4GB) support + * can handle self-extracting .exe archives (when renamed to .rar) + +To be implemented: + * archive consistency testing (needs new VFS API) + + +The current VFS implementation in Tux Commander lacks some extended features +for both archiving and remote filesystems. This is one of the main goals for +the 0.6.x series. + + +For successful compilation you will need working gcc and g++ compiler and +glib2 library installed with development files. The unrar sources are +included in the plugin tree, no external files are required. + +Compilation has been tested with gcc compiler version 4.2.3 and 4.3.0 + |
