BLOP  I think you have miss understood my comment. I find your app nice and easy to use, and so far it has been very reliable. For my personal use I do not need more.

As I said before if I had any wish,I would like to be able to turn off the sound, and growl support would be a nice plus!

Thanks!

BLOP  Good Starting. Seems to Work but so far I didn't have the opportunity to do extensive tests.

We really lack a descent UI for RAR on the Mac.

All the former attempts have become "abandonware".

I would like to be able to disable the sound, and Growl support would IMHO be nice.

Anyway, keep on the good work.

Thanks so much for this simple but neverthless useful UI.

JULIFOS  As for most of utilities I use daily, I wished something very "drag & drop" for my RAR needs, as I use to do the same allways: pick a folder and compress it, pick a file and compress it, pick a bunch of files and folders and compress it. Some times, create parts... Very simple tasks.

Existing products are nice (I take into consideration RarMe and SimpleRAR, but there are some more options), but they have many clicks to get the job done.

I missed too the existence of a "Cancel" button.

And the RAR binary is updated so often, so I thought an automated update would be nice...

Hopefully, I won't be adding new features/options to this app. The simpler the code, the easiest to mantain. Also, using the binary is not very reliable, IMHO. I thought initially in something similar to SimplyRAR (but more powerful), where you could create dirs, and items inside, etc. But, put simply, it's not reliable and not very interesting at all. If I was forced to write such a thing, I would rather pay this folk (http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/17741/rar-expander) to do it using the RAR libraries. I love RAR Expander and Kris Gybels has the skills to do it.

JULIFOS  No problem, it was only my point of view about a possible meaning of the words "Good starting".

About "disable the sound", you must be talking about the double-beep after a file is rar-ed. I'll add a checkbox in the prefs window.

About "Growl support", I'm not entirely sure about what-is-it, as I don't use it myself (as far as I know), but smells to a replacement for the double-beep?. A quick googling says it can be done easily, so I'll take a look as well if you find it an interesting feature.

Many thanks for your review!

BLOP  Me too I had bought a lifetime license and now it is refused when I try to register.

No answer from the developer to my emails.

Can only recommand to avoid this soft!
