INI parameter "AlwaysPackInBackground=" wanted

[Black Dog]

[face=courier]Christian, is it possible to add INI parameter "AlwaysPackInBackground=" to make Commander always pack files in the background?[/face]

Not so easily - packing consists of a non-threadsafe initial part, and a thread-safe second part (only for zip) where the user can click the "background" button. Only that second part could then be moved to the background, not the entire operation.

It looks like you forgot that you added "Background" button to "Files being packed" window (so it became dialog window :), that appears if Commander packs files with some external packer, e.g. rar.exe (actually that packing processes are background ones anyway, 'cause that packers are external programs %).

That's OK - I just don't want to see that "Files being packed" dialog window and don't want to hit that "Background" button every time I pack files with e.g. rar.exe (but of course I want Commander to play "Pack complete" sound after operation is finished).

So actually I just want Commander to hit that "Background" button in all pack files dialogs (internal ZIP and external packers ones) by itself :).

Is it possible?[/face]
