Voodoo-X is an MUI based front-end for Dirk Stoecker's powerful
unarchiving system xadmaster.library (Shareware). Unlike other
dearchiver front-ends,Voodoo-X doesn't depend on external archiver
commands (such as LZX, LHA,DMS, etc.) being in the C: drawer nor does
it require complicated command line setups for these commands. This is
because XAD does all the hard work.
Voodoo-X allows you to quickly browse an archive's contents and view
individual files (with filetypes) like pictures and documents just by
double clicking your mouse. This method of browsing archives proves to
be highly effective since you don't need to get your hands dirty by
extracting files to temporary locations such as Ram:. Voodoo-X does all
that for you.
xadmaster.library is a modular system and will support even more archiver formats in the future.
Note: Voodoo-X doesn't actually write disk based archives (like DMS,
xMash, etc.) back to disk, but instead examines them to see if they are
OFS or FFS formatted, if they are, it then allows you to browse through
the contents of them and retrieve individual files.
Voodoo-X can also retrieve files from inside standard FFS formatted
(i.e AmigaDOS) ADF files like those used with WinUAE. OFS,
FFS,DirCache, International, double-density and high-density disks
formats are all supported.
The following archives, disk packers and filesystems are supported:
Ace, Ace MS-EXE, Amiga Plus Unpack, Amiga Standard FS, AmiPack, Ar, Arc, Arj, Arj MS-EXE, BZip, BZip2, CAB, CAB MS-EXE, CompDisk, Compress, Cpio, CrunchDisk, DImp, DImp SFX, DMS, DMS SFX, GZip, LhA, LhA MS-EXE, LhA SFX, LhF, LhPak SFX, LhSFX, LhWarp, LZX, Marc's DiskCruncher, Microsoft FAT FS, MSA, MXM-Simple Archive SFX, PackDev, PackDisk, PCompress PACK, RAR, RAR MS-EXE, S-Omni, S-Pack, S-Pack SFX, SanityOS FS, Savage Compressor, SDS Software SFX, Sensi disk FS, Shrink, SuperDuper3, Tar, Trackmo-DOS FS,
