Allow csdb & swag to be imported direct from zip files #91

Closed delphidabbler closed 5 months ago

delphidabbler commented 1 year ago

Currently users have to download the Code Snippets Database and SWAG as a zip file, then unpack them into a directory and finally point CodeSnip at the directory.

It would be a better user experience to permit the snippets to be imported directly from the zip files, and/or for the zip files to be dragged & dropped on the import wizard windows.

This will need a 3rd party library since System.Zip is not available for Delphi XE.

Had a rethink about this.

There is no equivalent of Delphi 11's System.Zip unit in Delphi XE.

To implement would require installing Abbrevia or similar, which is more overhead than I want to accept.

So this issue is being rejected and closed.
