Dan I'm trying to get these working correctly on my linux box but suspect there's an issue. Do you know if the command lines for the compression tools are different for linux vs windows?

I've moved a copy of Agency over to Linux and was trying to merge nodelists. Most are not merging, only Fido, not sure why. I seem to have infozip zip installed and unzip from debian?

Just thinking it will be a mix of switches and tools causing me this prob.

There shouldn't be any differences. Here's what I've got in my Husky config:

Unpack "unzip -joLqq $a -d $p $f" 0 504b0304
Pack zip zip -9 -j -q $a $f

In Mystic:

Pack zip -qj9 %1 %2
Unpack unzip -oqqjC "%1" "%2" -d "%3"

They both seem to work fine. Are you merging them in Mystic?

Also, make sure you've run 'sudo apt install zip unzip' to install them, as I don't think they come with the base install. :)

Unpack "unzip -joLqq $a -d $p $f" 0 504b0304

The L extracts files with lowercase (sometimes)

Unpack unzip -oqqjC "%1" "%2" -d "%3"

The C matches files case insensitively.

I wonder if it's a mixed case problem avon is having? (seems it worked on windows, not linux).

Might be something to have a look, and see if the extracted files are
matching the case he's expecting.

I never even looked to see what those were for...

That is a possibility. Come to think of it, I have had a few zip files that Mystic wasn't able to extract. Perhaps it should be changed to L, and see if that helps... Hmmmm. :)

out of interest what ver of zip/unzip do you run?

In Mystic:

Pack zip -qj9 %1 %2
Unpack unzip -oqqjC "%1" "%2" -d "%3"

I'm missing the quotes in the unpack line.... I wonder if Linux needs this vs Windows?

Will try this now...

Yep that has helped... I'm now looking at the stock command lines for the latest pre-alpha just to align them with this ver of 64 linux for A46
