Create "Zip" Archive [Feature request] #202

Closed GhostIsBeHere closed 2 years ago

Add the ability to "zip" multiple files into one program for easy transfer between calculators. One would be able to select multiple files/programs/appvars and the program would generate a single program a bit like the Cesium installer, that when run, it would generate those selected files. I know this is pretty far-fetched, but it would be really cool.

What does that have to do with Cesium though? 🤔

GhostIsBeHere commented 2 years ago

This seems like something that would be easiest to implement in the cesium environment, rather than a separate program. It would also fit in with cesium's already great file system

adriweb commented 2 years ago

But... Cesium doesn't have a file system, it reads the OS' "file system" (VAT).

Moreover, what you're asking seems to me like it's the existing "group" feature that the OS already offers. Check out the bottom of the Memory management menu. You can select multiple variables to be grouped, then transfer that group to another calculator for instance.
