• Does AndExplorer provide an Intent to select a file ?
  Yes, you need to start an Activity for regular PICK intent with initial directory path URI as data and one of the following type (vnd.android.cursor.dir/lysesoft.andexplorer.file, vnd.android.cursor.dir/lysesoft.andexplorer.directory). For instance:
   ...
  Intent intent = new Intent();
  intent.setAction(Intent.ACTION_PICK);
  Uri startDir = Uri.fromFile(new File("/sdcard"));
  // Files and directories
  intent.setDataAndType(startDir, "vnd.android.cursor.dir/lysesoft.andexplorer.file");
  // Optional filtering on file extension.
  intent.putExtra("browser_filter_extension_whitelist", "*.txt,*.mp3");
  // Title
  intent.putExtra("explorer_title", "Select a file");
  // Optional colors
  intent.putExtra("browser_title_background_color", "440000AA");
  intent.putExtra("browser_title_foreground_color", "FFFFFFFF");
  intent.putExtra("browser_list_background_color", "66000000");
  // Optional font scale
  intent.putExtra("browser_list_fontscale", "120%");
  // Optional 0=simple list, 1 = list with filename and size, 2 = list with filename, size and date.
  intent.putExtra("browser_list_layout", "2");
  startActivityForResult(intent, 0);

• Does AndExplorer provide an Intent to uncompress files ?
  Yes, you need to start an Activity for regular VIEW intent with file path URI as data and one of the following mime type (application/zip, application/x-gzip, application/java-archive, application/tar). For instance:
    ...
    Intent intent = new Intent();
    intent.setAction(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
    Uri uri = Uri.fromFile(new File("/sdcard/test.zip"));
    intent.setDataAndType(uri, "application/zip");
    // Optional custom title.
    intent.putExtra("archiver_title", "Your title here");
    startActivity(intent);
