Description Unknown 2003-08-25 23:18:09 UTC 
Version:           v2.1.9 (using KDE 3.1.9)
Compiler:          gcc version 3.2.2 (Mandrake Linux 9.1 3.2.2-3mdk)
OS:          Linux (i686) release 2.4.21-0.25Win4Lin

In KDE FIle Manager, Right Click on Directory, and select
Action/Create gzipped archive or Create zip archive, ark is launched and the following error box is presented

Unknown ardhive format or corrupted archive

Click OK and Ark is opened, but with no files in it.

I can drag files/directories into ark, but am unable to do so directly from a Konqueror file display.

Ideal behavior would be to have the files zipped or tarred in the preferred directory without ark ever opening.  If no preferred directories are set, the the pwd should be used.

As of 9/2/03, can no longer drag files to archive or create any new archives. 
Same error message occurs.  ark --add-to (from terminal) also creates same error
condition.

Looks good to me!  Both right click on Directory in Konqueror and File New
Archive works.
