  djtipzApril 8, 2010

  Pros

  iv been looking for a mac prog that will open zips that iv only been able to open on a pc, this app does it! it places it in a new folder, but in my opinion its helpful in keep ur unzipped folders organised and its very easy to drag where you want!

  Cons

  the logo! thats the only let down!

• puts decompressed archive in awkward location

  mark.ruseSeptember 20, 2007

  Pros

  nothing

  Cons

  it does even less than StuffIt Expander. The archive ended up in ~/Library/OpenUp and is deleted when Open Up quits. Help / Supported Decompression Formats ... is disabled in version 3.2... try Zipeg instead...

• Great Job

  IgorJune 17, 2006

  Pros

  Did what I need. Opens .gz files that are larger than 2 gig (Stuffit won't). Works great.

  Cons

  Minor complaint (very minor). Didn't provide any indication that it was doing anything. The first time I tried it I didn't think it was working so I force quit it. I tried again and just decided to leave it and see what happens. After a while i saw "Successful". An indication that it is working would be nice, but it is still a GREAT JOB.

• doesn't have file name length problems

  Pros

  Cons

  Summary

  When unzipping, unfortunately the UnStuffit utility which comes with Mac OS X truncates files names longer than 31 characters. OpenUp doesn't, and unlike most other unzip utilities, it is free and a native OS X app. Nice job, Scott!
