Sorry, I realy don't understand what you meen.
Could you send me a screenshot on my mail ?
Thanks in advance - May 19 2007

I have changed the screenshot to show you wich submenu concern this service menu.
You should have only one "extract archive" submenu.
You can send me your screenshot so that I can understand better your problem :
mfaya (at) free (dot) fr - May 15 2007

The other submenu is the ark one.
I've changed the name to "Extract archive" to differentiate.
Read the description to see what's different from the ark menu.
If you want to desactivate ark menu, open ark, go into configuration -> General and desactivate the konqueror integration.
But it can be useful to keep it if you want to compress using ark in konqueror. - May 14 2007

Thanks very much. Works perfectly. It's now included in the script v1.11 - May 14 2007

I've corrected it replacing the exec line with :

Exec=xterm -e "cd "`dirname %u`"; unace x "%u"" - May 10 2007

It tells me :
Cannot find the program « cd » - May 10 2007

Thanks for your small and practical script !

Rar files are not recognized, because you must add ,application/x-rar-compressed at the end of the line of ServiceTypes= - Apr 21 2007

Sure, but when you went to upload files on the internet, give files to a friend that hasn't got linux (or import files from a fat32 or NTFS drive), read music or pictures files elsewhere than on a computer, ... it's quite safe removing theses characters, specially because computers are designed for english language... - Mar 12 2007

Version 1.2 is now online.
For this version, I would need also the german translation of :
keeping UPPER cases
renaming in lower cases

Thanks - Mar 11 2007

Thanks, I will change that also.

Would you have the german translation of :
Recursively remove special characters
and :
Recursively create M3U playlists
?

Thanks in advance - Mar 10 2007

> Is it checking for collisions ?
Yes, if a file become the same name as an other one, it ads as many "-" characters it needs at the beginning of the name.
(Since today 20H40, before it was at the end)

> I would suggest to convert characters like é to e and ä to ae
Look at the translation code in rm_special_char.py
You will see that é becomes e as you say, but ä becomes a.
If you think it's better to rename ä to ae, I can modify the source code, but in that case post me a list of all the characters you think it's better to change (looking in rm_special_char.py)

> And what about lower/upper case?
I though at this problem, and for the moment upper case aren't renamed in lower case.
But you're right, I will change that.
In the next version all upper cases will be rename in lower cases.
Check for version 1.2 tomorrow.

Thanks for your suggestions, Topazz. - Mar 10 2007

Done - Mar 10 2007

Thanks, I will correct that tonight - Mar 10 2007
