EzZip is a "EASY-TO-USE" "FRONT-END" program "ADD-ON" for PKZIP/PKUNZIP
EzZip was designed for those of us who use PKZIP/PKUNZIP on a regular
basis, but hate to TRY to remember the "NUMEROUS!" "COMMAND LINE" options
of EACH program.....
Thus was born "EzZip" - This "EASY TO USE" program was whiten for
the novice ZIP user and designed to make ZIPPING as easy as possible!
EzZip is essentially 3 programs built into one, CREATE, EDIT, & SPAN
CREATE will allow you to select files from a list and then either
MOVE or ADD them to a ZIP file.
EDIT will show a list of a ZIP files contents, and allow you to
select the files you wish to EXTRACT or DELETE from the ZIP file.
Before it Extracts the files form the ZIP it will show you the current
available space and the space that the UN-ZIPPED files will take up,
and give you the opportunity to select an alternative directory and
drive to extract to.
CREATE/SPAN will allow you to select FILES/DIRECTORIES to ZIP onto disks
using the new PKZIP V2.x SPAN feature - Also helps with UNZIPPING!
USAGE:
C:>EzZip - In a directory where NO ZIP File exists
1. You will be prompted with the option to "Create" or "Edit"
2. If you choose to Create you will be shown the current directory,
and allowed to select files to "put into" the ZIP file
(you can select files from MULTIPLE Drives/Directories)
3. You will be prompted to select the drive/dir for the ZIP
file you want to create, as we as the name for the ZIP file.
4. Once this is done, you will see the Option screen, here you can
select from the different types of disk compression, and other
PKZIP options.
5. Once this is done, you can SIT BACK and watch it do it's stuff!
C:>EzZip - In a directory where 1 ZIP File exists
1. You will have the same screen as above to select "Create" or Edit"
Except that the "EDIT" button will display the name of the ZIP
file in the Current Directory!
2. From here you can just HIT Enter to "EDIT" the aforementioned ZIP
file, or if you want to ADD TO or Create a NEW Zip use the "Create"
option and follow the above info!
3. Once you have selected the "EDIT" option, the program will "READ"
the ZIP file and bring up a LISTING of the Files inside the ZIP
4. From this screen, you can Select the files to work with.
5. Once selected, you then must decide if you want to "UNZIP" or
"DELETE" these files from the ZIP, If you UNZIP, the files will
still be left IN the Original ZIP file.
If you Decide to "DELETE" the files from the zip, you will not
see any more prompts, it will Immediately proceed to DELETING
the files from the ZIP!
6. If you decided to UNZIP, you must then decide were you want
the UNZIPPED files to go, The default is the Current Directory!
You can change this to any Drive or directory.
*NOTE: the Available space on the drive is shown on the screen
as is the size of the UNZIPPED files allowing you see if
you will have enough space for the UNZIPPED Files.
7. After this you will be given several options from PKUNZIP.
select the ones you need.
8. Sit Back and watch it do it's stuff!
C:>EzZip - In a directory where multiple ZIP Files exists
1. You will still see the Option Screen as above, but if you use
EDIT you will see a list of ZIP files to Edit
2. The Rest is like the above!
C:>EzZip - To SPAN ZIP to Multiple Disks!
1. The procedure is EXACTLY the same as NORMAL CREATION of zips
EXCEPT: When you get to the Screen to enter the NAME for the
ZIP file, Simply hit the "SPAN" button...
2. You will then have to decide on several options...
Compression, Name, Which Drive to Span To...
3. Once Selected, That's it! - Sit back again!!!
*** Command Line Options:
C:>EzZip ZIP - Takes you into the EDIT Listing of the ZIP File
This Program requires PKZIP, PKUNZIP and ZIP2EXE VERSION 2.X to work.
These programs do not contain the PKZIP/UNZIP files.
You must have these files on your PATH in order to make the best
usage of these files.
