Because file-roller is just a frontend for commandline archivers, and all of those don't report the progress in any way in the middle of operation. THings being like this, it is impossible to show a progressbar, as we don't know when the operation finishes, untill it's finished. And one point about file-roller, it does a filesystem view, with folders and subfolders, of the archive, as opposed WinRAR which only lists the files all at once. This takes some processing, and if one more sec is the price to pay for the file-rollers way, I'll pay it gladly. _______________________________________________ gnome-list mailing list gnome-list@xxxxxxxxx http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-list
