solved [TC 11.50rc3] Fault in Help file for Packers

[petermad]

In the Help, this:

ACE=c:\utils\arj\ace.exe Path/filename for ACE packer

should be:

ACE=c:\utils\ace\ace.exe Path/filename for ACE packer

But isn't in current year\epoch = Winace.exe should be it's substitutor?

In anyway - just now found one interesting place:

You could say the same about rar.exe -> winrar.exe

When you check Configuration - Options - Packer, you can see that TC uses winace.exe as a default, but not winrar.exe...

Of course! You are absolutely right! But only one archiver was touched upon in the topic.
I didn't think it was worth mentioning all the others at once. Although we understand that
for a long time this tab with this set of archivers should have been deleted in fact.
How long will these outdated utilities take up space?

There's a difference between WinRAR/Rar and a wrong name.

Just because something is outdated for you doesn't mean it's for others.

OK show me your personal nowadays archives with UC format for example.

Confirm the typo.

This should be fixed in RC4 now, please check! I changed it to
ACE=c:\utils\ace\winace.exe
because winace.exe is the default shown in the configuration dialog (but rar.exe is shown for the rar packer).

[petermad]

Confirmed that:

ACE=c:\utils\ace\winace.exe

is now used in the help for TC 11.50RC4
