      TID: Mystic BBS 1.12 A47       MSGID: 2:201/137 b836d2db       REPLY: 2:201/137 3f2f0fd7       TZUTC: 0200       Hello g00r00!              ARJ and 7-ZIP revisited. :)              On 02 Aug 2021, Bj”rn Wiberg said the following...        BW> g0> There is no enabled setup for ARJ by default in Mystic but if you wan        BW> g0> create a view default feel free to do so and send it over, like any o        BW> g0> archiver.        BW>         BW> Tried getting this to work, but didn't quite succeed --              I performed an strace and noticed that Mystic appears to add "/dev/null 2>&1"       to the end of the View Cmd command line. This seems to break things. But on       Linux, it is possible to perform the following work-around:               Active ³ Yes        Extension ³ ARJ        OS ³ Linux       Description ³ ARJ32 ARJ Utilities (CUSTOM)        Pack Cmd ³ arj a -e -i -y "%1" "%2"        Unpack Cmd ³ arj e -e -i -y -w"%3" "%1" "%2"        View Cmd ³ arj l -i -y "%1" >> "%3%2" 2> /dev/null; exit $? >>              This will preserve the exit status of arj and tame the added /dev/null 2>&1       stuff.              The -i will remove any progress indicator from the output. Unsure if that one       actually shows during viewing, as I haven't checked the source code, but it       won't hurt, and it is at least good for packing/unpacking, I presume.              Also note that there should be no space between -w and "%3"; it appears to be       the same thing for other platforms. Otherwise ARJ might complain and interpret       the work directory as an archive file name.              And something similar for 7-ZIP:               Active ³ Yes        Extension ³ 7Z        OS ³ Linux        Description ³ 7-ZIP (CUSTOM)        Pack Cmd ³ 7z a -y "%1" "%2"        Unpack Cmd ³ 7z e -y -o"%3" "%1" "%2"        View Cmd ³ 7z l -ba -y "%1" >> "%3%2" 2> /dev/null; exit $? >>              D.S.              All comments and thoughts welcome. :)              Best regards       Bj”rn       --- Mystic BBS v1.12 A47 2021/07/31 (Linux/64)        * Origin: Star Collision BBS, Uppsala, Sweden (2:201/137)       SEEN-BY: 1/123 30/0 80/1 90/1 103/705 105/81 120/340 123/131 124/5016       SEEN-BY: 129/305 154/10 201/0 137 203/0 124 218/700 221/0 1 6 226/30       SEEN-BY: 227/114 702 229/101 424 426 428 452 550 700 981 1016 1017       SEEN-BY: 230/0 240/1120 5832 249/206 307 317 400 261/38 280/464 5003       SEEN-BY: 282/464 1038 292/854 8125 301/0 1 101 113 317/3 320/219 322/757       SEEN-BY: 335/364 341/66 342/200 396/45 633/280 712/848 920/1 2452/250       SEEN-BY: 3634/24 5020/1042 5058/104       PATH: 201/137 0 203/0 280/464 301/1 229/426           |
