Working with RAR Files


Question:

Has anyone used WB to expand/extract .rar files - maybe driving a third-party/command-line tool? I'm working with RAR files that I am currently expanding with an eval version of WinRAR and then manipulating the files. I would like to try to automate t he whole process. Anyone have suggestions? Any good utilities for expanding RAR files?

Answer:

PKzip does extract .RAR files and has a command line tool you could drive. http://www.pkware.com/ They also have a Toolkit and some free downloads you might look into.
