No batch file involved - and now that I check I'm not sure WHAT xlaxdiff uses
to unpack things - I thought there was a .ctl file associated, but all I can
find is the one for xlaxnode which naturally enough has nothing to do with
archives. If it doesn't work with the archived file this time, I probably will
set up a batch file to unpack things first, and I'm pretty sure I've got
pkunpack around here somewhere. If I don't, I'll go find one or accept your
kind offer. Thanks!
