File archivers and special DOS/Windows device names

[3APA3A]

Hello support,

If  archive  contains file with special name (such as prn, lpt1, com1,
con,  etc) it will be extracted to this device instead of file. Tested
with  pkzipc, WinRAR, rar, WinZip, tar (cygwin port under windows). In
case of WinZip and tar file will be extracted silently, in other cases
overwrite confirmation required.

This  problem is only DOS/Windows specific. Tested on Windows NT/2000.
To  test:  make  sure  PRN:  (usually  PRN:  is  an alias to LPT1:) is
functioning  (that  is  you have printer connected to LPT1) and try to
extract  attached  ZIP,  TAR or RAR archive. It should print 1 page on
PCL-compatible printer.
