Introduction

Many times I had to archive folders and other stuff to send to people or for backup purposes. The IDDE did not have this feature. I wrote this so that I can zip up what ever I need and when needed without moving out of the IDDE. It is simple ANT based.
The action pops up a dialog to choose archive name and folder to create in. The defaults are the selected node's file/folder name and the parent folder of the selected node.
In this version, only a single selected node is supported. I promise to allow multiple selections in the subsequent versions.

In NB7 I could see choose the Source packages node and select the "Export as archive" option from the Run menu or clicking the toolbar icon. I am yet to enable it in the RMB click

I am sorry I am unable to get the handle to the source packages node. As a work around, you can choose the default package node. (ditto for test packages). The default package points to the src directory.

Hope this helps.

Hi,
I like this plugin. I use it mainly to zip up a projects sources.
I would like to be able to invoke this action on the "Source Packages" node; As it is I have to go to the "Files" window, select the "src" dir and invoke the action.

Keep up the good work,
Opher.
