Just kicked off an archive using this command

Ooooooh! This made my brain cell think you had actually started the process mate ;-)

I am unable to confirm it for you as I would just highlight everything and use the 'Lha ADD' function of Dopus 4 myself.

However, after comparing it to another command line it looks like you have an "a" in the wrong place.

This is the command for backing up your existing icons before installing Kens Icons:-

Lha a -a -e -r -x  Icon_Backup Sys:#?.info

(This will put an archive called 'Icon_Backup' in your System partition)


I think you are very wise to your Ram Disk as the initial destination mate :-)

Does DOpus give any idea of progress, or at least that it's doing something?

Well mine most certainly does! It display "Frozen" and the % of compression as it does the task. When completed it displays:-

"Operation successful."

and

"Press left mouse button to continue"  :-)


I just turned my Workbench into an LHA file in RAM, unpacked it into RAM and then booted into it.

(well, I didn't really boot into it :-D)


In Dopus4 config 'Menus' I have:-

LHA add

AmigaDOS LHA -x a "{d}{RsEnter LHA archive name}" {0}


Flags ticked are:-

CD source

Do all files

Output window

Recursive directories

Rescan destination
