Hi and thanks for reading my post!
I use the internal ZIP packer for zips (*.zip) and I would like to use it also for another extension (which is also a simple zip). Cannot figure out a way to do that
Could anybody smarter kindly hint or advice me, pls?
Many thanks in advance for any kind help!
Best,
K

Re: Internal ZIP packer-how to associate with a new extension?
If you are packing, just give the file a different extension.
If you are unpacking, good news. TC doesn't really care about the extension that much. If you want to "go into" an archive with a non-standard extension (assuming the actual archive type is supported by TC), just press [CTRL]+[PageDown] on the archive file.
From the "Keyboard layout" section of the help (which you can open with F1):

Re: Internal ZIP packer-how to associate with a new extension?
Any archive type supported by TC or any packer plugin can be opened/entered with Ctrl+PageDown, even if it is not associated with anything. To support searching in archives, you need to add the appropriate extensions to SearchInFiles option in wincmd.ini; see TC's help, section 4.b for more information. Here's an example from my wincmd.ini:

Code: Select all
SearchInFiles=*.exe *.jar *.zip *.7z *.rar *.xpi *.pak *.pk3 *.sxw *.sxc *.odt *.ods *.odp *.msu

You can make an internal association with the command **internal_zip - see: https://madsenworld.dk/tcmd/internalassoczip.png

@Dalai
Thank you for the tip! Works very well!
@petermad
Perfect! Thank you so much! This is exactly what I was looking for Wish I could give karma on this board
For anybody googling this thread, you can also change the icon of the file to the regular package icon. It can be found in the TOTALCMD.EXE.
Best regards!

Re: Internal ZIP packer-how to associate with a new extension?
I ran into the same problem due to having to rename zip files as *.123 to send to customers or received from customers in email.
I found that if I use the open command **zip then TC will treat it the same as a *.Zip file
