Easy addition of external programs and external program listing #276

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
There should be a way to add external programs into FreeArc through a simple 
dialogue or menu.  This will improve the ease of use for external program 
support.  Also, it should be possible to get a listing of all configured 
external programs in the GUI.  This would make reference for creating 
configurations a lot easier.

first of all, full-featured configuration of compression scheme for freeArc may 
be rather complex task (look at console version docs), so i don't implemented 
it yet and don't expect in any near future

OTOH, i'm open to ideas of most useful controls that amy be added to 
Compression Configuration dialog. f.e. precomp, srep and dispack checkboxes 
plus may be a few configuration controls. but for the rest of externals, 
looking into arc.ini isn't harder than constructing proper compression profile

OTTH, FreeArc is open in some way. Everything is in the text format, you may 
develop 3rd-party program that does that you asked and then distribute it using 
my site or even include in ther program like All2Arc.exe
