 |

I'm looking for a "ark" (from kde) type of program to use on my system. I don't use KDE, but Fluxbox and Rox Filer.
Can anyone suggest a good one?

I've looked at Archive before, and I don't like it.
Its mostly for checking out stuff rather than full use, just to save me opening a terminal and untarring something. I'm looking at file-roller just now.

From the Archive website: | Quote: | Features
* Can create .tgz, .tar.bz2, .zip, .jar and .tar archives.
* Can extract all the above, and .rar, .rpm, .cpio and .deb formats.
* Can compress and decompress files to/from .gz, .uue and .bz2 formats.
* Full drag-and-drop support. |
Sounds like full use to me.

GNOME stuff is ok. It doesn't need to load a pile of libraries to provide the API, its mostly just done in GTK+ which is nice and fast, plus I normally have Mozilla open anyway.
