Ktarsyz is a menu extension for KDE that offers additional archiving capabilities within Konqueror, surpassing those offered by Ark. It is a straightforward service menu.
Ktarsyz is a software that provides an additional archiving feature for KDE beyond what is available in Ark's menu under Konqueror. With Ktarsyz, you can create or replace one archive per file or selected folder to every destination of each file or folder with corresponding names. It resolves symbolic links and includes content linked in the created or replaced archive. However, it is important to use this tool with caution as it is intended for batch work.
Ktarsyz is not a new software, but rather a solution to a gap in Ark's capabilities that the developer identified. If you have a simpler solution that accomplishes the same task, the developer invites you to share it. If not, and you think Ktarsyz could be useful, it is possible to download and install it. The "Notes" file, available in the doc/[lang]/ folder, offers helpful tips and descriptions for using Ktarsyz.
To use Ktarsyz, you will need several requirements, including Rexx-regina, GNU tar, and KDE 3.5.x. The installation process is relatively straightforward. Begin by unzipping the file to any accessible location. Then, open a console in the uncompressed folder location and type "./setup.sh" to install the package. If you require additional information about the installation process, consult the INSTALL text also located in the doc/[lang]/ folder.
Overall, Ktarsyz offers a simple and practical solution for archiving files or folders with corresponding names, resolving symbolic links, and including linked content, making it a valuable addition to any KDE user's software library.
