Last several days I spent on working on packer plugins support and few
things finally work. Now it's possible to browse through archive as by
local directory and extract files by copying them into local directory.
I tested it only on one plugin (… 
) for now (iso files) and it seems that it's working well. Because
I had to modify several other methods many things can be more unstable than
before so I have to test it a little. Another things I would like to
do till next release are add some options about this kind of plugins, menu
commands and integrity test of archive files. And another thing not important
for you is that copy, move and extract methods code is how to say… little
messy and I need to go through of it to make it more transparent.
And… if somebody of you have a lot of time you can make plugin for RAR and ZIP archives because (not only) for this are not plugins – they have native support in Total Commander. I have not in plan to make any native support for them so if not somebody of you I will make at some time plugin for them. It should be only some kind of wrapper to their unpack library file.
