I tell you something, that is really bugging me...
I have been having a good go at various different Archivers now, both with their own shells, and command-line versions, and I have found, that a good few of them work with Long Filenames, but not with the GEMmed shells!
Now, one way I did get success, was with PACSHELL, but only when I unarchived the original ZIP, that was created with Win95!
This isnt exactly what I was looking for was it?
I am still looking into it all, and I am seriously thinking of using pacshell, or maybe I will write my own shell for LZH ( Prefer LZH, and 99% of my ARChives are now this ) but I would really prefer a tried and tested reliable program, such as LZHSHELL - I have enough to type on Linux and I so am sick of command lines.
Oh, and on the second bit about VFAT vs Minix....
OOOHHH! - A bit touchy there are we? Not a magic fan I see
No, its not the "crappy" VFAT FileSystem off Magic that is the problem, because I have tried it under Mint & MultiTOS...
Oh, and as I feel a debate coming on, I am going to put my 10p's worth in...
I used to use MultiTOS, but then I got bored waiting for it to do anything, so I got Magic instead!
HA-HA-HA-HA!
Take that in the fun it was intended to.
