The attached file contains a directory DIFF/ with 3 diffs and a category
to NSFileManager.

The category adds -locateExecutable: that scans PATH for the specified
executable and returns the path to it.

The diff for PreferencesController.m contains a simple modification to
-init, that uses the above method, if the userdefault for the executable
isn't set (eg. first launch of Zipper).

The diff for Preferences.h contains three #define for the binary names
of tar, g(un)zip and (un)rar. These may have to be changed first.

The diff for GNUmakefile adds the entries for NSFileManager+Custom.

Hope that's useful,
