Redirecting LhA output
I'm writing an Installer script. In this script I need to unpack many files from an LhA archive. Not a problem with Installer
runstatement. Works fine. However on 68020 @ 28 MHz machine this unpacking takes about a minute. During this time Installer just shows busy pointer and has its UI disabled. Would be nice to display LhA output in a console window, so the user knows what is going on. To my surprise, plain redirection does not work. For example: Code:
LhA x somearchive.lha RAM: >CON:////Depacking/AUTO/CLOSE/WAIT Tried with LhA 2.2. |

Often times, informational output is printed to stderr, so maybe you need to redirect that

You may try the lha option "-D" Alternate progress display.
