A fun trick I learned recently is Scooter Software's Beyond Compare can be used to extract many archive files such as RAR and 7z without requiring additional software to be installed.
Beyond Compare can treat an archive file as a directory, and it allows copying files from one directory to another. Voila.

Nach langer Suche habe ich endlich S3 cloudstorage Client Software gefunden, die macht, was ich brauche.
Für Linux ist es #rclone mit dem rclone browser und für grapheneOS ist es #exfilac.
Hauptproblem mit anderer Software war die Konfiguration des Zugriffs auf alternative storage Anbieter (statt #AWS). Bei den beiden Tools funktioniert es. Für Linux würde ich mir wünschen, daß #beyondcompare endlich alternative S3 storage Anbieter unterstützt 🤨
I've been using #BeyondCompare for about 20 years now, it's great value for money!
Today I discovered `Word Wrap` isn't available in v4 of the product

But in the same thread it's mentioned v5 is in the works!
I'll definitly upgrade to it when the time comes. Not because I need it, but to #support the team building this awesome product!

@RichardKogelnig Love Beyond Compare! Such a great tool.
I use it frequently for comparing directories.
Years ago I even wrote a journal article about its image comparison capabilities 😆
Though I’ve tried to avoid paying for sync phone with iCloud for windows, and #BeyondCompare folder sync that to OneDrive which works with Linux. Works … “Ok”… but deleting and moving notes can lead to duplication.
If I can figure out how to do a #BC4 folder merge and use that to update, with sync paused it’d be perfect.
But since #Obsidian dropped sync prices to $10 or month I might just go for that…
@auditor_3d I also use Scooter Software’s Beyond Compare to assist with incemental backups/mirrors. I have used their product on Windows, Mac, and Linux.
