lha preserve dir timestamp
« on: January 23, 2014, 12:33:06 AM »
when I unpack .lha, all directories seem to have 'today' timestamp. is there  a way to restore original time?
Better sorry than worry.

but there must be a way to modify archive, while preserving dates?
lha does store dir timestamp (when listing), it just doesn't use it when unpacking, for some reason.
Better sorry than worry.

thanks Thomas.
in case bug report is ignored, could this step:
"store drawer/file1 <- this changes the drawer's date to today."
be modified in OS, so the drawer's date isn't changed?
Better sorry than worry.
