Exclude Mac resource forks does not exclude .DS_Store #248
Comments
Technically, .DS_Store files are not resource forks, although I suppose Keka could handle them in the same way, I suppose.

You're both right. Technically the .DS_Store is not metadata, but Keka should ignore this one and other Mac specific hidden files when the flag is checked. |
Fixed for 1.1.3. @brianduguid can you test it? Keka-1.1.2r2794 |
i'm having this same problem with 1.1.4 Both .DS_Store and _MACOSX folder are showing up in files opened on windows. |

Can you give me an example so I understand this on better? |
i had set Keka as the default compressor using the helper KekaDefaultApp. I right-clicked a folder, selected compress and it created .zip folder. When I would open that zip, there would be another folder just like the one I had right clicked initially and also a _MACOSX folder inside. |
@davidysoards the default You can use the Keka services, that are in the bottom of the context menu: Those also can be called with a keyboard shortcut: |
How do you get those Services to list in the menu? Mine are all in a Services sub menu. |

@gingerbeardman added #292 to talk about it. |
I just started using Keka to solve the issue of excluding ._ and .DS_Store files in tar.gz files to be used on a Linux box. I have "Exclude Mac resource forks (eg: .DS_Store)" checked in preferences as well as the drag and drop box. The ._ files are excluded, but the .DS_Store files are included.
