Come off it. The UNIX command line in the Terminal is immeasurably more pleasant than the DOS command line in Windows.

I really don't care about command line anywhere. I was referring to finder/explorer.

Mountain Lion's Archive Utility added support for password zip files so they do still focus on file management tasks. Mac OS X file management (i.e. Finder) will only disappear when the mouse cursor does in my opinion.

Has anyone tried Entropy? How does it perform compared to Betterzip?

Does any of the unpacking apps allow to store passwords & auto select one?
