Description Eugenia Loli-Queru 2004-04-23 19:52:15 UTC 
Scenario:
I am opening a compressed file and I navigate through it with FileRoller to 
let's say, /usr/X11R6/libs/folder1/folder2. I am currently on Folder1 and I 
have selected Folder2.
I want to extract Folder2.
What FileRoller does is to extract the whole path of the folders before it. 
What I want is to extract the Folder2 as /folder2 without all its previous 
path. That's how WinZip does it and it is very convenient for me to be able to 
isolate and extract specific folders on my desktop without having to deal with 
their whole path. Winzip only extracts the folder you dragged n dropped on 
your desktop and I think that's the best way of doing it.
