If you know the device name (eg DH0: CF0: CD0: etc) then you can use Dopus's configuration program to add that drive to the program.

The C button in the bottom right corner of the Dopus screen, I think.

Depends on what kind of archive you're dealing with. Out of the box, DOpus will extract LhAs if you click on the file and then click into the other lister (called a Click-m-Click action). Newer DOpuses (DOpi?) will treat any archive handled by XAD (see Aminet) like a directory, so you just open it up and then copy the files to the other lister.

If you want click-m-click to work for other kinds of archives, you'll need to define filetypes and click-m-click actions for them.

A universal "Extract Archive" button is something I think you'll have to do manually. It will most likely require the XAD system and a command-line XAD unarchiver.
