[TC 11.50b2] Help pages not adjusted after introduction of internal 7-Zip packer

Post by *white »

Help pages not adjusted after introduction of internal 7-Zip packer:



Page: Configuration - Packer
The ZIP packer is configured on a separate page.

The ZIP packer and 7-Zip packer are configured on a separate pages.
See also: Handling of archives (ZIP, ARJ, LZH, RAR, UC2, ACE)
The page includes 7Z and is called "Working with archives (ZIP, ARJ, LZH, RAR, UC2, CAB, ACE, 7Z)"



Page: Dialog box: Pack
The files are then packed externally by one of the packers pkZIP, ARJ, LHA, RAR, UC2 or ACE. Total Commander contains an internal ZIP packer.
7-Zip not mentioned in both lines.
Important: You must specify the correct packer (zip, arj, lha, rar, uc2 or ace) in front of the archive file, separated by a colon (:).
7z missing.
Multiple disk archives (ZIP, ARJ, RAR, ACE)
7-Zip missing.
This function supports ZIP, RAR, ACE and ARJ, and also some plugins like SQX. An unpacker for ZIP is included: By default, files packed as ZIP-SFX are unpacked to the current directory, but a different directory can be chosen before extraction.
7-Zip missing.
Allows you to encrypt files. Either requires the internal ZIP packer, or external packers (RAR, ARJ) or plugins supporting encryption (e.g. SQX).
7-Zip missing.
Compression rate Only for internal ZIP, GZ and TGZ packers
7-Zip missing.



Page: Pack
Allows packing of the selected files with one of the packers pkZIP, ARJ, LHA, RAR, UC2 and ACE.
Missing: internal packers ZIP and 7-Zip. Remove UC2?
Important: In the dialog box you must specify the name of the packer (zip, arj, lha, rar, uc2 or ace) with a colon [ : ] between packer and file name, otherwise the files will be copied!!!
7z missing.



Page: What is Total Commander?
- Internal unpackers for ZIP, ARJ, LZH, GZ, TAR, RAR, ACE, and 7Z formats.
- Internal ZIP packer, based on ZLib by Jean-loup Gailly.
Missing: - Internal 7-Zip packer
"Internal ZIP packer, based on ZLib by Jean-loup Gailly" may not be entirely correct anymore.

Most mentioned things seems to be fixed in TC 11.50b3 English and German help.

This was not fixed for the German help. The section "Erzeuge selbstentpackendes Archiv" should be updated, similar to the English version.

Missing: internal packers ZIP and 7-Zip. Remove UC2?
UC2 was removed in English version (not in German help), but shouldn't because help text explains how to create new UC2 archives.
German help uses "7ZIP" instead of "7-ZIP".
7-ZIP is missing in the last paragraph of the page in German help. And the paragraph in English and German should contain the same info.

Confirmed.
I had to write 7-ZIP all uppercase in far more locations than I thought, because ZIP and the others were also all uppercase.

Still a small bug in the German page Packen:
Der Entpacker ist ein 32 bit Programm, doch funktioniert er auch unter 64-bit-Windows.

Die Entpacker sind 32-Bit-Programme, funktionieren aber auch unter 64-Bit-Windows.
