SimplyRAR Troubleshooting ReportJust one problem - Version: 1.0.8, 7/12/2006 11:48AM PST

This is the only program I've found for Mac that will actually create and split rar files, so it's a great help. The only thing I've found that doesn't work is the option to split rar files into 100mb parts. I don't know if anyone else has had this problem, but I've tried reinstalling a couple of times with no luck... hopefully it will be fixed in a future update.

SimplyRAR ReviewGood but.... - Version: 1.0.8, 7/2/2006 10:12PM PST

I like the GUI. It's well done and easy to use.

But, the person who posted earlier is correct....

While the Application is Universal Binary, all of the processes that it uses on the back end are PowerPC.

I've only used it a couple of times so far but it works like a charm. Small file size too.
Recommend it for the just-want-it-to-work-with-a-minimum-of-tinkering crowd.
No documentation included but none was needed for my simple purposes.

SimplyRAR ReviewOnly the UI is UB - Version: 1.0.8, 5/25/2006 06:22PM PST

During extraction, SimplyRAR spawns PowerPC process called "rar". While it functions well, calling it Universal Binary is a stretch.

SimplyRAR CommentaryArchive Browser? - Version: 1.0.6, 4/30/2006 01:56PM PST

I would really love to see true archive browser functionality. Granted, you can choose to decompress individual files, but it's a far cry from WinRAR's ability to decompress and launch a file on-the-fly, directly from the archive.

SimplyRAR ReviewProgress Bar - Version: 1.0.6, 4/29/2006 05:11PM PST

Would it be possible to have the progress bar not have a flashing effect.

Other than that it works great.

SimplyRAR ReviewGood App - Version: 1.03, 4/25/2006 06:42PM PST

I couldn't get the PAR functionality to work, but the rest of the application is fantastiic.
It's a bit basic in some places, and lacks a progress display whilst in operation, but it works very well otherwise.
Not quite an alternative to WinRAR yet, but certainly adequate for most.
