ZIP viewer issue...

Post by Ultima »

Files that have square brackets in their filename ("name [date].jpg" for example) can't be viewed properly if within .zip files. I haven't tested other combinations of possible "problem" characters, but it doesn't appear to be an issue with .7z files (not sure about .rar files at the moment).

Old unzip…

Post by Clo »

:) Hi !

• I guess it depends on the unzip library used… The old ones didn't support characters
which were prohibited in the DOS policy. Ours is dated 2002…

•You might test a newer one, i.e. in TC <TCUNZLIB.DLL> patched by Ch. Ghisler
(you could get an agreement with him if that does the trick…)
