Hello g00r00!
ARJ and 7-ZIP revisited. :)

I performed an strace and noticed that Mystic appears to add "/dev/null 2>&1" to the end of the View Cmd command line. This seems to break things. But on Linux, it is possible to perform the following work-around:
Active � Yes
Extension � ARJ
OS � Linux
Description � ARJ32 ARJ Utilities (CUSTOM)
Pack Cmd � arj a -e -i -y "%1" "%2"
Unpack Cmd � arj e -e -i -y -w"%3" "%1" "%2"
View Cmd � arj l -i -y "%1" >> "%3%2" 2> /dev/null; exit $? >>
This will preserve the exit status of arj and tame the added /dev/null 2>&1
stuff.
The -i will remove any progress indicator from the output. Unsure if that one actually shows during viewing, as I haven't checked the source code, but it won't hurt, and it is at least good for packing/unpacking, I presume.
Also note that there should be no space between -w and "%3"; it appears to be the same thing for other platforms. Otherwise ARJ might complain and interpret the work directory as an archive file name.
And something similar for 7-ZIP:
Active � Yes
Extension � 7Z
OS � Linux
Description � 7-ZIP (CUSTOM)
Pack Cmd � 7z a -y "%1" "%2"
Unpack Cmd � 7z e -y -o"%3" "%1" "%2"
View Cmd � 7z l -ba -y "%1" >> "%3%2" 2> /dev/null; exit $? >>
D.S.
All comments and thoughts welcome. :)
Best regards
Bj�rn
