Check the ChangeLog for a complete list of changes.

gxTar is a Gnome/Gtk+ front-end to common archive utilities
under unix. The goal is to make it the winzip of the unix world.
Currently zip, gzip, tar, bzip2, and arj are supported. Current
functionality includes the ability to open and create archives, and
to add, delete, extract, and view files. Files can also be added to
archives or opened by draging & droping from any D&D
supporting GTK+ app, including gmc.

The current release has been tested on Linux with the latest CVS
release of Gnome (though the latest RPMs should work). It is
(still) no longer possible to compile a GTK+ version. I finally got
tired of re-implementing all of the functions that Gnome provided.
Perhaps I will bring the Gtk+ version uptodate again someday, but
not now.
