Archive library

Include LArc library (or similar) to new versions of CraftOS.
In this case will be easy to destribute programs which uses several files to run.

can't be added as it includes c modules.

An alternate solution would be to use any of the several archiving tools written in Lua dispersed throughout the forum or write one yourself. I had a had to write one of my own ( I should probably upload that… ). I am quite sure cc-get has to have a pretty good implementation of some tool and might be worth looking into.

Don't a lot of people write simple installers to download multiple files?

If you can find me the source code of the zip algorithms I could try porting it to Lua if it's not too hard. Or at least try and get a project team together to attempt it.

Edit:
Scratch that, the link you gave actually has most of the lua code in it: https://code.google..../filesystem.lua

Figure out which bits are implemented in C, chances are you may not need any modifications to ComputerCraft to be able to do it, it might be a matter of swapping out functions.

eg

function isdir(name)
  checklfs()
  local mode = lfs.attributes(name)
  return mode == 'directory'
end

Is already implemented in ComputerCraft as fs.isDir
