TAR Files

Post by ScottM » Sat Aug 10, 2019 2:35 am

Hello, can LiveCode read TAR files? Would like to code an application that can read a TAR file, generate a manifest of the contents and as an option extract the TAR and checksum the files.

Not 'directly', only via shell(). But you could use directly zip (the revZip lib).
shiftLock happens
