I am proud to announce version 4 of Avalanche!

Avalanche is an unarchiver GUI using the ReAction toolkit for AmigaOS3.2 and 4.1. It supports xad, xfd and Deark so can extract and decrunch most files it encounters. Any unsupported files can be added via an xad module.



Version 4 represents a large GUI refresh. The file selector and buttons have been replaced by a unified toolbar, taking up less space and presenting a cleaner more modern design. These can use both internal four colour images or external AISS (or AISSClassic) full colour imagery.

The main file list browser is still available in old style list and tree mode, but has been expanded to display more fields. The icon set has been redesigned and extra images have been added to indicate encrypted files, links and disk images. Directories can now be selected and deselected without having to enter them in tree mode.

Disk images within DMS files can now be mounted directly on WB3.2 via double-click (other files can be opened with a double-click too!), and plain uncompressed images (eg. ADF, ISO) are now supported too if a suitable XAD module is present.

The progress bar has had an overhaul, now showing the overall extraction progress, and providing more status messages and detail. It has moved to the bottom of the window (in the border on OS4)

And, lastly, a tab bar means multiple files can be open in the same window.
