cd, ls, get: walk inside the archive as if it were a filesystem. EXPERIMENTAL.

Quick summary

ls lets you navigate inside a .zpaq like a 'filesystem'. Enter help or ? for the list of commands.

Power user usage

  • Not in the ANCIENT builds (-DANCIENT).
  • If stdin is not a terminal it runs what it gets and exits (65.5, before it looped forever).

Lo spiegone

Dispatched as command : to ls(). Changes in 65.5: Windows paths have the drive (C:/) as first level (like //server/share/ for UNC); ls -r in the root lists every root once, with all its levels (no repeated lines); cd accepts relative paths of several levels (ex. cd Users/franco/docs); folders only rebuilt from paths have a blank date.

Real-world examples

Enter the archive

zpaqfranz ls z:\1.zpaq
