Whoa! How does that work? They must have to extract the bz2 first... but that would wreck the whole reason it's compressed. *confussled*Squidge said:.tar.bz2 has already been done

I am the king of the collectors, with hospital bed
Now let's talk about ACTUAL executable file formats.
I vote for forcing everybody to use a.out, but with ROT13 applied.

I think that Pandora should have a file extension for executables, regardless if Linux can tell otherwise or not. Simply because if any random person is going to be using it, then they will expect the executable to have a file type. As for what the extension itself is, could be .qzx for all I care I just think that if a user sees a file with no extension they will think that something has gone wrong.

*definition of expert is someone who realizes that one letter extensions save at least a few nibbles
.x is the DirectX model format, so that won't work

actually, i kinda like *.box for compressed executables or something.
.PRS and PXEs are used in PSP stuff, (1.5 and 2.x respectively)
self contained read only executables that contain everything including a default config (where it'd be read from the ./ first, then copied)
loading time would be increased just a tad. but thats pretty much how apple's .DMG format works. and everyone knows apple is the greatest in the whole world </sarcasm>* however apple pre OSX didn't have extensions at all either. it was a real pain in the ass.
to be honest, so long as we don't have that retarded "gpu is for utilities and it uses less cpu power than gpe, but otherwise, no difference" system. man that was dumb. there really weren't any important utilities that i can think of offhand, aside from the cpu daemon.
*all hardware sucks, all software sucks.

There's a solution (well, many):
Explore2fs
Ext2 Installable File System For Windows
ext2fsd
Crossmeta
As you can see, it's not a problem reading ext2 FS on Windows. And with the last link, ext3, ReiserFS and XFS too.

How about software for MacOS, BeOS, etc ?
Its also additional software that some people might not want to install/don't have the ability to install. Some people can't even open zip files without help. Yes, the later kind of people are going to be limiting what they can do with the Pandora anyway, but thats no reason to throw them to the sharks.
FAT32 just plain works, regardless of Platform.

Thought we'd settled on .box
