It can be found at http://gxtar.netpedia.net/gxtar-0.0.7.tar.gz There is also now a binary intel RPM, it can be found at http://gxtar.netpedia.net/gxtar-0.0.7-1.i386.rpm Some changes in 0.0.7: *added Preference screen *GUI improvements *configure script now included * -f no longer need when specifying a file to open at the command line *several bugfixes, including removing all fixed length buffers. Check the ChangeLog for a complete list of changes. gxTar is a Gnome/Gtk front-end to common archive utilities under unix. The goal is to make it the winzip of the unix world. Currently zip, gzip, tar, bzip2, and arj are supported. Current functionality includes the ability to open and create archives, and to add, delete, extract, and view files. Drag & drop support is coming soon (really). The current release has been tested on Linux with the latest CVS release of Gnome (though the latest RPMs should work). It is no longer possible to compile a GTK+ version.. I finally got tired of re-implementing all of the functions that gnome provided. Perhaps I will bring the gtk version uptodate again someday, but not now.
