Add support for PAR/PAR2 records #39

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
There's no support for PAR/PAR2 records. This could theoretically be added,
but currently I am not sure I have the time. Therefore, any external help
would be very much appreciated.

For anyone interested in helping out with this: libxad reads data through a
custom callback handler, that implements open/read/seek/close
functionality. Multi-part archives are handled transparently through this,
for instance. A PAR/PAR2 handler could be written that works like the
multi-archive handler but additionally fills in any missing pieces by itself.

I don't suppose that you would implement SFV support in addition to this, since 
SFV has no output file...
It would be nice to ditch some other single-purpose utils.
