Extracting archives

> Extracting the contents of the archive can be done through any of the following ways:

> - Choosing Actions –> Extract extracts the entire archive to the default extract folder. If no default extract folder is specified, Beezer prompts you to choose a destination folder. You can specify a default extraction folder in Preferences. The sub-menu displays various probable extract destinations, clicking them starts extraction immediately without any further prompts
> - Choosing Actions –> Extract To always prompts for a destination folder whether a default extract folder is specified or not. Sub-menu displays various probable extract destinations, clicking them starts extraction immediately without any further prompts
> - Choosing Actions –> Extract Selected does the same as Extract To, but for selected entries
> - Choosing toolbar: Extract. This always extracts the entire archive and not selected entries. Clicking on it extracts the entire archive to the default extract location or prompts you for a destination folder. The context portion provides some probable extract locations
> Drag 'n Drop

> You can extract entries through drag and dropping them on to a Tracker window.

> Drag 'n drop extraction always extracts selected entries. If you want to extract the entire archive through drag 'n drop, just choose Edit –> Select All and then drag 'n drop the selection.

> While dragging entries to be extracted, the number of files and folders that will be extracted will be shown. But since extraction is a hierarchial action, parent folders that aren't selected while dragging aren't counted and displayed although they will be extracted.

> Please also see Viewing files for information on how you can view files in an archive.

> Note: Currently Beezer does NOT report any errors that occur while extracting archives. This may be changed in future versions.
