An updated supplementary package (1.01) for creating self-extracted archives for Windows 64-Bit and MS-DOS is available for download.

[Lefteous]

While testing I found an error. Unpacking is performed without paths in some cases. I'll try to fix the bug as soon as possible.

Glad to hear you already released it!

I do always support opensource formats. And this seems to be a great packer, by the way.

Let's wait for the fixed version.

Good work, Lefteous!!

You catch me, Clo! Good memory!

And if you realized, I haven't made any pressure over Lefteous about the plugin since the time he said he was working on it...

Ok, ok, I must confess sometimes I've got the temptation to bump that other thread...

I receive error "Archive is probably corrupted" while working with
archive http://www.lefteous.de/tc/archives/totalsqx/totalsqx_1.0_translation.template.sqx

The crystal ball says you are working on Windows 9x.

Unpacking this archive on Windows 9x doesn't seems to work. Several Windows 9x users reported this problem to me.

[Gral]

Yes, error occurs on WIN98, on WINXP i've not tested plugin yet.
I thought plugin works the same way on every 32-bit Windows

This same for http://www.lefteous.de/tc/archives/xpdfsearch/xpdfsearch_1.02_source.sqx

[Zenman]

My OS is winxp sp2, still get the same error message with the file "http://www.lefteous.de/tc/archives/totalsqx/totalsqx_1.0_translation.template.sqx"

A very professional plugin Lefteous!

Now that I've tested it I realized it has all the features a commercial packer/unpacker has! The configuration dialog is simply incredible!!

Apart from that, I have a simple question. The "Create solid archive" option is checked by default. If I'm not mistaken, if you want to extract a simple file from the end of an sqx file created with this option, the entire file must be scanned from start to end.

Perhaps it should be inactive by default. But don't worry, I know the plugin remembers the settings, so I can uncheck that. And I'm sure you have a good reason to have it checked by default (probably better compression).

Anyway, great work and great plugin!!
