Would anyone happen to know where I might be able to find a tutorial or something that explains how to write a simple utility for placing files into one file (an archive)? Like winzip I guess, except I''m no so concerned about the ability to compress though it would be nice. -Miraj

There''s a tutorial somewhere on this very site, try doing a search in the programming section.

I''ve got some code to archive files, if you want it, e-mail me. It''s not pretty though
I'm reminded of the day my daughter came in, looked over my shoulder at some Perl 4 code, and said, "What is that, swearing?" - Larry Wall

Cool thanks Muzza I''ll try the search. I''ve gotten pretty familiar with the site here and I just figured there was none but its pretty possible i missed it. I''ll drop you an email if things get to confusing

Thanks!

It''s not oriented towards archiving purposes, but I think it''s just what you''re looking for.
Yeah that was exactly what I was looking for! Thanks theRaskell.
I sort of remembered a tutorial like that on Gamedev before but couldn''t quite think of the name. Awsome, thanks
