Hello gang.
WarpZip from Pillar Soft has been updated to state of the art with the version 2.3 and I, @Macarlo, registered user since the beta version, I'm using here fine. Are you seeking for a zip-unzip front-end really improved? It is WarpZip! This I recommend enthusiastically! WarpZip incorporates a file manager very fast and much, much more! Download it and see by yourself!

 WarpZip Overview

WarpZip is the latest in Zip and OS/2 "Packed" file management. Beneath WarpZip's stunning interface you will find some revolutionary and powerful functions that will save both time and effort and boost your productivity.

The integration of a directory tree as part of the interface makes unarchiving complete archives or just selected file(s) from an archive to any directory as simple as a 3 inch drag and drop, to ANYWHERE on your drives. If you don't have the directory you want, create it! You can also open any folder from the directory tree for drag and drop operations. Drag files into or out of archives. Delete any directory or even complete directory trees from WarpZip!

Download Preprocessor

No more manually selecting a directory when downloading from NS. WarpZip's Download PreProcessor allows your browsing sessions to sport one click downloads that obey your every whim. It will selectively move your downloaded zip files to any directory you choose, test them for integrity, virus test them and queue them up for later review by WarpZip. All this is handled seamlessly in the background while you spend your online time making your browser session count. When you're offline, WarpZip will be waiting with the list of files you've downloaded. It will automatically load them in it's queue on startup and present you with any test results you may have requested.

Packed Files?

OS/2 Packed file extensions can have "_" or "@" or no extension at all. So how do you locate them? Better yet, how do you locate and see what files are archived inside of them? We are unaware of any software that will help you find those almost unrecognizable OS/2 packed files except WarpZip. Of course, dragging a file out of them or viewing them is as easy as working with a zip archive.

Search Facilities

WarpZip will search a directory, directory tree, hard disk or CD for zip files as well as OS/2 packed files. It will add or delete files from archives, view files in archives or you can test run them (to do an installation, for example) and let WarpZip clean up after you. You can test zip files or run virus scans, view bitmaps, grep, build self extractors, copy, move, rename, delete... well... you get the picture...

Installation Details

During installation WarpZip will allow you to use existing paths for dll's etc. and keep track of them for you. It will write an uninstall script specific to your installation should you decide to remove the program at a later date. No forgotten file clutter...

What's New?

This is a refresh that addresses a couple of minor items.

• Sometimes "Grep" window would lose it's color information
• Fixed extracting zipfile's with spaces that contain filenames with spaces
• Will now view icons (.ICO) in internal viewer
• Press F3 key to stretch graphics in internal viewer to full screen

Features
