CLI programs to unpack tar files:

http://aminet.net/package/util/arc/untgz

A GUI for unpacking archives:

http://aminet.net/package/util/arc/Voodoo-X

(don't forget to install the requirements first)

leytond · 17 February 2009, 20:55

what are the requirements ??????
how do ya know what the requirements are before you install ?????????
where do i get the requirements from ??????

Go on there my son

A new thread indeed. What's freaking happening. Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeelp

You know leytond, looking on aminet or just googling around usually gets the stuff you require. Most the stuff I've got is because I spent thousands of years, I mean, a couple of years, googling and got almost everything I needed 'n' that's why I hardly request anything. Then again, you are new to the Amiga and you're not really sure what you're looking for.

Search the board first, you may find others have started similar threads to what you are wanting to start too, saves a little time + it doesn't give the mods a headache

dev/mui/MCC_NList0_89.lha - version 0.89+
dev/mui/MCC_NListtree.lha - version 18.8+
dev/mui/MCC_Speedbar.lha - version 1.3+

this is what it says it need but ive looked on aminet but theres nothing there

ive tried to install voodoo x but it just asks for that above.
just when ya get one problem sorted there is another, DAM.

The LHA file in System:c is used to unpack the files and this really need to be the latest, I think. I'm not sure if powerpacker was able to unpack these files, I'm pretty sure it was just a file cruncher to save disk space, so ignore what I've just said.

If you type in a cli, DH0:C/LHA it will give you the version of LHA + how to utilise it

If your version is too old, then search on aminet for a newer version.

leytond · 17 February 2009, 21:16

found the speed bar but nothing else

NSTALLATION
************

1. Extract the archive to a temporary directory:

> cd RAM:
> lha x MCC_NList.lha

2. Go to the "MCC_NList/Libs/MUI/<OS>" directory where <OS> is the directory
matching the operating system you want to install the NList classes for,
e.g.:

> cd MCC_NList/Libs/MUI/AmigaOS4

3. Copy all the #?.mcc and #?.mcp files found in that directory to the
global "MUI:libs/mui/" directory on your system partition.

> copy #?.mcc MUI:Libs/mui/
> copy #?.mcp MUI:Libs/mui/

4. Reboot and enjoy the new version

From the included readme file

Dunno about your blood pressure, but take it easy man

It's just a retro machine after all and should be fun

If it's getting too much, just fire up a game and relax

Edit : <OS> = AmigaOS3 for you.
