| Is there a 'front end' for Pkzip for OS/2 (which can still be downloaded from Hobbes at http://hobbes.nmsu.edu/pub/os2/util/archiver/pkos2250.exe ). I am not talking about the one mentioned in the news article (main page of OS/2 World) but asking if there are any others. Can one make a 'front end' for Pkzip for OS/2 using DrDialog?

Well a very simple unzip front end in rexx: /* Open directory in wps */ call RxFuncAdd 'Sysopenobject', 'RexxUtil', 'Sysopenobject' say arg(1) Just change the unzipdir to meet your needs and change the unzip arg(1) to the appropriate pkzip arguments. |

| Try FM/2 (now as freeware available at Hobbes). This File manager has a nice integration of most of the available archivers arround. RBRi |
