Unzip all like in TC

I like to see that when i select all zip files (CTRL + A) and i use ALT + F9 (Unpack) i can unzip all selected files.
This is how it works in TC and i miss this in Salamander. In Salamander It just unzips the file where the cursor is.

You could do it via automation script.

I would like it if i select all files, it would unzip all files. This also would be more logical then what happens now.

I don't usually use Salamander for zip/unzip, generally do it from a command prompt.
Days of old, there was a program, Fast Inflate.
Doesn't work too well these days in other then DOS.
So (& generally from a command prompt) I use this instead:
fasti7.bat:
Code: Select all
777.exe x %* -o* %2 %3 %4
:: with %2 %3, you can do something like
:: 777 x *.zip -o* *.exe *.chm
:: which would ONLY extract .exe & .chm
:: files from the .zip, rather then (by
:: default) ALL files...
:: like for with sysinternal files, you'd
:: want the .exe & .chm, but nothing else
That will open %* into individual subdirectories from where it was called from.
Suppose you could set up a SendTo (or otherwise) to use with Salamander.
So you would highlight the zip's you want, SendTo fasti7.bat.
(777.exe is simply 7-zip's 7z.exe program renamed to 777.exe.
[I find it easier to type 777 rather then 7z.]
[7z.dll from within
7z1900.exe is also required.)
