Winrar buttons on command bar

[HAL 9000]

I would like to have extract to and extract here buttons on my command bar. Is it possible to create this?

[tbeu]

I use the following commands:

Code: Select all

TOTALCMD#BAR#DATA
%COMMANDER_PATH%\Packer\RAR\WinRAR.exe
x %P%N "%P"
%COMMANDER_PATH%\WCMICONS.DLL,31
Extract RAR (Source)
%COMMANDER_PATH%\Packer\RAR

-1

for copying to the source directory and

Code: Select all

TOTALCMD#BAR#DATA
%COMMANDER_PATH%\Packer\RAR\WinRAR.exe
x %P%N "%T"
%COMMANDER_PATH%\WCMICONS.DLL,31
Extract RAR (Target)
%COMMANDER_PATH%\Packer\RAR

-1

for copying to the specified target directory. You can copy the selected commands and paste it to the button bar using right mouse click. Do not forget to adapt the path to WinRar.exe.

Thank you but where I should add this commands?

2HAL 9000: The code above are just 2 buttons for your buttonbar.

Just mark the 1st code part from "TOTALCMD#BAR#DATA " to "-1" and press Ctrl-C to copy it.
Now do a click with right mouse button on your TC button bar and select "Paste" command from context menu.

Magically a new button is created.

Do the same for the 2nd code part and you get a 2nd button ...

In this code, path selection dialog box doesn't appear, how can I make it?

Code: Select all

TOTALCMD#BAR#DATA 
%COMMANDER_PATH%\Packer\RAR\WinRAR.exe 
x %P%N "%T" 
%COMMANDER_PATH%\WCMICONS.DLL,31 
Extract RAR (Target) 
%COMMANDER_PATH%\Packer\RAR

The same here, but if you hover with the mouse over it, you will see, it is there.
Right mouse button over the place you past it, change, and than the Icon is shown.
Or remove the space after ,31 in the code.
Every line has a space added on the end when paste and this gives the problem.

Had this problem very often, that after copy and paste of code from forums, than a space
is added on every line on the end. Not sure if Christian can solve this.

I see the button. I mean the dialog box of path selection doesn't appear, it extracts files to default dir without asking me.

When you select extract to from context menu it shows a path selection dialog but that button is different no path selection dialog appears.

[Mikefield]

Ohh, I see. Yes, it extract in the other panel without any user request.

Add: You can use cm_UnpackFiles instead. It works also with rar files.

Code: Select all

TOTALCMD#BAR#DATA
cm_UnpackFiles

wciconex.dll,31

But this button extracts files only to the other panel's destination. With winrar "extract files.." command I would be able to extract to path I wanted without changing the other panel.

Autohotkey macros are the best solution, IMHO, there is no need of external programs(only Autohotkey ), tc is enough.

Extract_to_target_dir.ahk

Code: Select all

Send, {ALTDOWN}{F9}{ALTUP}{ENTER}

Extract_here.ahk

Code: Select all

Send, {ALTDOWN}{F9}{ALTUP}{DEL}{ENTER}

Just drag and drop each one of these .ahk files to the button bar

I think there should be a winrar parameter that do this. I checked winrar help file for extraction path command it mention X for it but I couldn't succeed.

"Extract files to the specified folder" command


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


This command is accessible both in file management and in archive management modes.

In the archive management mode, when WinRAR shows archive contents, first, you need to select archived files and folders, which are to be extracted. Then run "Extract files to the specified folder" command using either Commands menu, "Extract to" button on the toolbar or Alt+E keyboard shortcut. In the Extraction path and options dialog you may specify the destination folder for extracted files and, if necessary, set additional options. After closing this dialog, extraction is started.

In the file management mode it is possible to unpack several archives at once. In general the operation is similar to the described in the previous paragraph, but instead of selecting files inside of archive you need to select archives and folders, where WinRAR should search for archives. If any archives are found, the Extraction path and options dialog will be displayed. After closing this dialog contents of all found archives will be extracted.

Command line equivalent: command "x"

Code: Select all

TOTALCMD#BAR#DATA 
%COMMANDER_PATH%\Packer\RAR\WinRAR.exe 
x %P%N "%T" 
%COMMANDER_PATH%\WCMICONS.DLL,31 
Extract RAR (Target) 
%COMMANDER_PATH%\Packer\RAR

To get the "Extraction patch and options" dialog you have to use "?\" as the target parameter.

Example:

Code: Select all

"C:\Program Files\WinRAR\WinRAR.exe" x -- "E:\Test_RAR\Test_File.rar" "?\"

You can also append any existing path as the default target. E.g. "?c:\Program Files\" or "?%T" for the TC target path.

WinRAR adds the archive name to the path by default. Disable Options -> Compression -> Append archive name to path

Note: the "--" just stops the switch scanning.
