PakScape is a PAK/PK3 explorer/creator. Since PK3 files are really

ZIP files it can also be used as a ZIP explorer/creator.

Features

--------

* Multiple Document Interface

* Explorer-like UI

* Drag & drop (including to and from Explorer)

Bugs/Limitations

----------------

* When moving objects (files and directories) all of the original

objects will be deleted unless you cancel the operation in a

'Confirm Replace' dialog. Answering 'No' will only result in that

the destination file is not overwritten- the file to be moved will

still be deleted!

* Files can often only be viewed once.

* PK3 files are always saved using maximum compression.
