Details

Currently, we can obtain the time stamp (in milliseconds) of a file already installed by using File.modDate(). It would be nice to be able to obtain that info *before* the archive contents are installed. That way, a script writer can ascertain whether or not the file is more recent than the one on the harddrive. Note: if you list out the contents of the archive (even before unzipping it), the file sizes can be obtained. In UNIX, do an "unzip -v".
