Another smallish thing I just realised: When extracting
an archive / file, it overwrites previous copies without a warning, here. Is
that due to the bins used (tar, gzip et al), or is there something you could
do with Zipper.app?
Well, basically I just fork the bins and their default behaviour seems to be to
just overwrite. I could check the existence of each file before I fork the
unarchiver binary but I guess this would slow down the unarchiving process a
lot. It's not very hard to implement, though.
