Hi Grant, Alex and list,
This is the very reason why I said that BrailleNote offers so
many potentials. This handling of zip archive is, I should say,
an unintended side-effect brought by Bookshare book support in
this version. The next step that I feel that should come alive
would be a shortcut to zip files and folders, as well as at least
an external plug-in to support rar and other archive formats.
Cheers,
Joseph P.S. Thanks for confirming our theory, Alex.

Hi Alex,
The only times I've ever seen tar.gz archives were on the
download
sites for code for open-source software. It therefore seems
unlikely
or impractical for such an addition to be made to the BrailleNote
- or
any other notetaker for that matter.
I am, however, very pleased that my trusty mPower will now handle
zip
archives. I use Gmail to manage my Email (which works
beautifully in
the BrailleNote's web browser), and if someone sends you an Email
with
several attachments, Gmail can automatically zip all of them up
into
one archive ready for downloading. It's been a pleasure to
extract
those archives on my mPower, complete with the option of having
KeySoft automatically erase the archive after it is extracted.
Good job Humanware!
Cheers,
Grant

Yeah, now they just need to incorperatex more; mark files to be
zipped, change the prompts when unzipping, even support tar.gz
files (which would put us ahead of other notetakers).
Have a great day,
Alex
