(If you are not comfortable with ResEdit, please skip this section.) ZTerm provides a feature that allows you to indicate to ZTerm that zip files should be marked with a ZipIt creator. If you do this, then, whenever you double-click a zip file that you have downloaded with ZTerm, the Finder will launch ZipIt. Please read the following steps in their entirety before attempting this procedure. These instructions apply only to ZTerm version 0.9, not to 1.0 or its betas.
1. Launch ResEdit.
2. Use ResEdit to open a copy of ZTerm. Make sure you have a backup just in case something goes wrong.
3. Double-click on the 窶牢TR#窶 resource.
4. Double-click on resource ID 335, which should be called 窶廝in Detect窶
5. String #4 should currently read 窶0pZIPpZIPPK窶. Replace each occurrence of 窶徘ZIP窶 with 窶彁IP 窶. Do not forget the space at the end. The string should now appear as 窶0ZIP ZIP PK窶.
Warning: There are two invisible characters at the end of this string. These characters must remain there. For this reason, I recommend that you do not select the entire string and re-type it, but rather just select the two 窶徘ZIP窶捏 and change them.
6. Close resource ID 335 and open resource ID 330.
7. Scroll to the bottom and click on the row of five asterisks. Go to the Resource menu and choose 窶廬nsert New Field.窶
8. In the blank field, type 窶彁IP 窶, without the quotes. Don窶冲 forget the space at the end.
