If you run LHarc without ANY parameters, it automatically assumes you have typed in x /x as the command line! You can then JUST put the source archive-name, and the destination path name (including folder to create if desired), and it goes away, and puts the file/s where you told it to, creating any directories in the archive in the process! I usually put my *.LZH file, and LHARC.TTP in a RAM-Disk, double click on LHARC.TTP, and just type *.LZH into the command-line, which (as long as the RAM_Disk is big enough 8-) extracts all the files, and corresponding directories quite happily! Another point, GEM comes free with the Atari, Unix does not! So, if you can't afford it, (and running it on an 8Mhz machine, with no hard-drive is a bad idea anyway, especially the no HD bit!) - GEM is a quite a suitable substitute! (I don't *mind* command lines, but doing anything fancy requires too much thought 8-) Chow 4 Now! ============================================================================= | O O If I told you how much I needed this, | ||| | | o I wouldn't have time to eat it.
