Hate to bring up this subject again, but I would like to echo my support
for a CAB file extraction utility to be used under Missing Sync for
PocketPC.
I started from scratch on my Dell Axim and found that 99.99% of the
software I wanted to put on the device were PC executables. I know that
a few vendors offer CAB files in .zip format, but in my case I found
none that were in this format.
So, there I was again in Virtual PC doing all this stuff. I am
proficient with multiple flavors of Windows but I really don't like to
use it if I can avoid it somehow.
In past discussions, MarkSpace has said that CAB file extraction would
not be 100% reliable. That's ok! If I can get a 50-80% rate I would be
happy.
Another low-priority utility would be a theme creator...I know the image
sizes of the .TSK format but I would like to make them on my Mac and
transfer them over via Missing Sync.
