Re: [Vym-forum] Couldn't find a map (*.xml) in .vym archive

[Jason O. <jas...@op...>]

More information on this issue.

On attempting to open any *.vym archive, the Windows command shell runs
<vym_installdir>\bin\unzip.exe, which reports the error "unzip: cannot find
either C:\Documents or C:\Documents.zip" briefly before disappearing. 

Will experiment some more.

Thanks
Jason

Can the same $MAPNAME.vym file be opened in Linux?

It's just a zipped directory with subdirectories for flags and images.
on top level there should be the $MAPNAME.xml file containing the map
itself. Btw. this could be loaded directly into vym, once you have it
extracted.


I am not familiar with Windows, so this is a bit hard to debug for me
