Request: Ahk script to extract archive to subfolder of current directory

<< < (3/3)

4wd:
Since the ultimate point is to extract the contents of the archive I see no need to get the list of its contents before doing so, it adds unnecessary steps.

Only needed to find out if there was more than one object in the root of the archive.
If, after extraction, there was an already existing object of the same name then you can either rename, replace, or skip (and leave the extracted files in the temporary folder for comparison with the existing), which can be handled by a requester or a preset.

Like I said, there was no error checking in my script since it was just a sample of how easy it is to do.

Plus there was the reference to TC so the ultimate environment in which the script/program would be used was unknown.

i found another solution(maybe)
this AHK script 智能解压
seems can do it.
    But it is just a plugin, the author said it can be used as a independent script if i modify it. since i don't know how to code, anyone can help?
    @KodeZwerg How about add a content menu if it is hard to get the Archive filename through a hotket+click?

Hi all. Here is an AutoHotkey prototype. I don't have time to make more of it right now. But maybe someone else takes this to the next level?

@Nod5 thx!!! what a decent script!
i just test it, it works like a charm :Thmbsup: :Thmbsup:
a little suggestion(since it is just a prototype), it overwrites(my mistake, it just skip the same file) the files by default if it is already existed in the current folder. maybe you can add a overwrite  confirm dialog.

Nod5:
it overwrites the files by default if it is already existed in the current folder

I don't think it does, on the contrary in my (quick) tests it silently skips to unzip/move files if another file with the same name exists in the target path. But yes, a complete program should handle such cases by asking the user what to do. However that would take more time, which I don't have for this right now. But someone else might.
