How can I add support for unzip'ing hip files when opened Dec. 7, 2005, 1:43 p.m.
Thanks for all of your replies. If the file requestor isn't interruptable, then I guess there isn't a way in which to add an unzipping hook.
I don't know if houdini has this particular ability, but is there a way to add a button to any of the menu's, and define the behaivour there?

How can I add support for unzip'ing hip files when opened Dec. 7, 2005, 12:30 p.m.
Thanks for the quick reply. Unfortunately that particular solution doesn't handle the case when you open hip files ‘after’ a houdini session has been invoked. Are you aware of any clever hooks into that behaivour?

Since hip files compress really well, I've been trying to come up with a hook that would allow you to open a zipped hip file, and have it automatically unzip it.
At first I thought the 123 or 456 scripts were the way to go, but being a total newbie, I was completely wrong about when they are invoked in the overall lifecycle.
So I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction.
I'm using houdini 8 on a redhat 4 system.
Thanks,
