<td><b>X Northern Captain</b> based on <b>Virtual File System</b> (<b><font color="#FFFF99">VFS</font></b>)
conception. The virtual file system, or VFS, is an abstraction that allows
applications to access different types of file systems in a consistent
fashion. This allows uniform access to files in the local file system,
ftp sites, RPM packages, and compressed archives. You can easily manipulate
files on normal disk, inside archives and ftp sessions to remote machines,
and all operations on these files are transparent to the user.
<br><b>Achive file system</b>, or <b><font color="#FFFF99">AFS</font></b>,
is a part of VFS and it has supports for different types of arhives. These
supports allow XNC to enter into archive or archive inside archive and
to take a list of contents and to do other operations as with normal files
(<font color="#FFFFFF">even execute from it</font><font color="#F0FFF0">)</font>.
Of couse, not all operations supported inside archives, but such usefull
ones as copy, view, delete, execute can be activated by pressing hot keys
or via mouse actions.
<br>AFS supports are not compiled into xnc itself, its a set of commands
that placed into xnc configuration file '<b>~/.xnc/xnc.afs</b>' and you
can easily add your on supports for any exotic archive you like.
<br>If You enter into archive, XNC finds appropriate support for it and
run program pointed in the support. So this program (archiver) must be
installed before using support. After entering into archive abd reading
list of contents from support xnc displays file list on the panel, and
panel header shows assigned support, name of archieve and relative path
from the top of it.
<p>Currently XNC has following AFS supports:
<br>Extensions given in brackets.
<ul>
<li>
TAR [<font color="#FFFF99">.tar</font>]- execute 'tar' and allow 'copy
from/to (extract/add)', 'view', 'execute' and 'edit' operations.</li>
<li>
TARGZ [<font color="#FFFF99">.tgz;.tar.gz;tar.Z;tar.z</font>]- execute
'tar and gzip' and allow 'copy from', 'view' and 'execute' operations.</li>
<li>
ZIP [<font color="#FFFF99">.zip</font>] - execute 'zip and unzip' and allow
'copy from/to', 'delete', 'view', 'edit' and 'execute' operations.</li>
<li>
RPM [<font color="#FFFF99">.rpm</font>] - execute 'rpm' and allow 'copy
from', 'view', 'edit' and 'execute' operations.</li>
<li>
DEB [<font color="#FFFF99">.deb</font>] - execute 'deb-pkg' and allow 'copy
from', 'view' and 'execute' operations.</li>
<li>
RAR [<font color="#FFFF99">.rar</font>] - execute 'rar' and allow 'copy
from/to', 'delete', 'view', 'edit' and 'execute' operations.</li>
<li>
UNARJ [<font color="#FFFF99">.arj</font>] - execute 'unarj' and allow only
full extract ('copy from' with all selected files) command.</li>
<li>
LHA [<font color="#FFFF99">.lzh;.lha</font>] - execute 'lha' and allow
'copy from/to', 'delete', 'view', 'edit' and 'execute' operations.</li>
</ul>
<b><font color="#FFFF99">FTP</font></b> file system is another type of
VFS in XNC, it allows you browse and manage remote directories via
well-known <b>File Transfer Protocol</b>. FTP connection can be established
by <font color="#FFFF99">ActivateFtpLink</font> command or by typing '<font color="#FFFF99">cd
ftp://site</font>' string in command line. Also you can remember bookmark
for your site and then go to the site by pressing on the bookmark button.
