FORMICA  I love this app and have used it for over a year. But it just takes too darn long to open after I've double-clicked on an archived file. Unfortunately, it's a long enough delay to cost it one star in what otherwise would be a 5-star review. Also, it still occasionally has the problem that the previous version had: it runs into some problem while unarchiving, so it makes that failure sound and gives an error message, but upon further inspection, they actually unarchived fine and are problem free.

MOURITSDEBEER  Incredible! All other unzipping app's don't even come close to this one! Zipeg is quick, easy to use and very user friendly. Thank you so much ... my previous unzipping applications failed to unzip properly but there are absolutely no issues or bugs with this. Thanks!

It was true prio to version 2.3

I verified that version 2.3 handles tar permissions correctly. I downloaded applications from TMKK XLD and successfully extracted it with correct permissions. Everything seems to work. (I notified tmkk about the fix).

ROBK  According the the X-Losses Decoder Project, ZiPeg breaks UNIX permissions during the extraction of an archive.

See http://tmkk.hp.infoseek.co.jp/xld/index_e.html

Is this true?

GARY30  Nice little app that offers a function useful to those of us who have adopted zip and put sit behind us. Not too complicated, not to simple. Just right. Thanks!

While developer recommends putting the app in the Applications folder, it also seems to work when put in the Utilities folder on my machine. Okay, call me compulsive.

TOMIS  Recommendation: Avoid

Incredibly buggy. Refused to run from the disk image. Lots of interface glitches, windows popping up randomly and unexpectedly. Very slow. Feels like a Java port.

Doesn't respect the user's wishes. Annoyingly presented a window asking to be set as the default app for numerous archive formats, closed the window, only to discover that it had set its self as the default app!

Upon first opening a ZIP archive it loaded the file browser and loaded the file previews, then proceeded to close the file browser, open a "User Agreement" and open an "sample archive"!

It's really too bad. The core functionality is great. Everything else about the app is utter junk. Needs to be re-written as a proper Cocoa app.

GARY30  Hey there sport,

None of your complaints amounts to a hill of beans. It's a little app that does what it says it will do and helps you get going. How about you write and post a FREE Cocoa app and then see how you feel as you read ridiculous complaints from the clueless.

AEKA78  This software handles PC-Compatible ZIP files really well! Other rival compression software ended up giving me errors when extracting a specific directory of files.

Well done! Highly recommended.
