Pack dialog: split to multiple disks: Enter size right here

Post by *burg1 »

Two minor usability improvements:

1) The label for the option to split the archive into mulitple parts ("Archiv auf mehreren Disketten") is misleading: This has nothing to do with floppy disks! The option can be used on any drive ;-)

2) Let the user enter the desired part size right there in the pack dialog box (instead of bringing up another, subsequent dialog)

Sorry, I didn't mean to insult anybody :-)

All I'm saying is that nowadays the splitting isn't done for disks anymore. So just label it "split archive into multiple files of this size: ____ kB" and everybody is happy ;-)
