• Extend maximum command line length?

    From Björn Wiberg@2:201/137 to g00r00 on Fri Aug 6 13:37:13 2021
    Hello g00r00!

    Just wanted to ask -- would it be possible to extend the maximum command line length for archivers (Pack Cmd, Unpack Cmd and View Cmd), say, to double or triple the current maximum length?

    As some archivers have rather long options (for which there are no shorthand counterparts), and sometimes it is necessary to create a small "pipeline" of commands to cover up for an archiver's handling of paths (e.g. having to switch to the temp directory and add files from there to avoid getting paths in the resulting archive, or having to switch to the temp directory as there is not "destination dir" flag).

    Thanks in advance! :)

    Best regards
    Bj”rn
