KnowWare's Archivers Program
File Compression Utility
KnowWare's Archivers Program is a file uncompression and compression utility which includes complete file management tools. It provides you with a quick, intuitive Windows interface for using the file compression programs ZIP, ARJ, LZH and Microsoft's Compress and Expand programs. The Archivers window is laid out with a Source and a Target directory visible on your screen. This allows you to see and control all of the Archivers functions. The Archivers menus provide quick access to all of the uncompression and compression commands, and, for added speed, Archivers also provides a pop-up menu which can be accessed anywhere in the Archivers window by clicking on your right mouse button and provides you with instant access to the more frequently used menu items. Archivers also offers the ability to view, extract or delete individual files within your Zip, Lzh and Arj files before uncompressing them.
And Archivers does not limit itself to file compression and uncompression. It also offers a complete file management system; allowing you to create directories, delete directories, copy and move files, search for files, view and execute files, and backup system files - all directly from the Archivers window. By double clicking on files, you can also view text files, BMP files and GIF files, as well as execute EXE files and listen to WAV audio files. Archivers also includes a directory comparison function which can compare a working directory and a backup directory and automatically update the files that have been changed. We have also recently added a user-defined text editor and graphics viewer which you can add to the Editors or Viewer menus for viewing text and graphics files. Archivers runs under Windows 3.x or Windows 95.
