Mapping Network Drives and Password Protected ZIPS


Mapping Network Drives and Password Protected ZIPS

Postby DaleReeck » Mar 8, 2002 @ 2:37pm

Any plans to add the ability to map network drives (PPC 2002) and the ability to extract password protected zips? I don't know about anyone else, but I would think these are two fairly important capabilities and are the only things keeping me from using DEXplor as my main file manager. I still have to keep Resco File Explorer and Zipper on my PPC. Resco has solid apps, but I'd prefer to use DEXplor.

Version 1.30 will include the ability to password protect, and access password protected, zip files.

I don't know if the network mapping support for Pocket PC 2002 devices will make it into 1.30. Pocket PC 2002 devices contain all the needed routines to handle network mapping. Basically all a program need do is "turn on" the mapping. There are of course free 3rd party programs that do just that, but it is a feature DEXplor should have.

Encryption will be on the way as well, but again, not for 1.30. I'm almost certain it will manifest as a separate (free for registered users) plugin.

Thanks for the suggestions!
