HOW TO INSTALL ZIP
Zip is distributed as C source code that can be compiled on a
wide range of Unix machines, VAXes running VMS, and MSDOS
machines using Microsoft or Borland C++, and OS/2 machines using
Microsoft C. You will need Unzip 5.0p1 (under Unix, MSDOS, or VMS)
or PKUNZIP 2.04g or later (under MSDOS) to unpack the distribution
file, zip201.zip. But since you read this, you have unpacked it
already, or you cheated and got a tar.Z file...
Let's assume however that you start from scratch and have not yet
unpacked the sources. First, unpack the source as follows,
assuming that you have zip201.zip in the current directory.
mkdir zipsrc
cd zipsrc
unzip ../zip201
This extracts all source files and documentation in the
directory called "zipsrc". If you wish to build a version
of zip with encryption capabilities, you must also get the
separate package zcrypt20.zip and uncomment the definition
of MAKE at the beginning of the makefile.
You then do:
make system
where "system" is one of: generic, 386bsd, 3b1, aix, att6300, aux, bsd,
bsdold, bull, convex, coherent, cray, cray_v3, dec_osf1, dnix,
dynix, hpux, isc, linux, minix, next10, next2x, next3x, nextfat, pixel,
ptx, rs6000, scodos, sco_x286, sgi, sun, sun_gcc, sysv, sysv_gcc,
sysv_386, sys_386_gcc, sysv_old, ultrix, v7, xenix, xos, zilog.
Try "make generic" first, this works on most systems. If this
fails, then use one of the special targets given above.
If you are using a NeXT, then make next for help about various
NeXT targets. Among other special systems are HPUX, DNIX 5.2 or
5.3, Cray Unicos, AT&T 3B1 (also known as Unix PC or PC 7300),
Zilog Zeus, A/UX, Convex, AIX, MINIX, ISC System V/386, Dynix,
Ultrix and DEC OSF/1.
If you are using BSD Unix, try bsd. If the linker cannot find
_memset or _memcpy, try bsdold or v7. If you are using System V
Unix or SCO Unix, try sysv or sysv_old. Also use sysv on a
Silicon Graphics (SGI) machine. You can also cross-compile Zip
for MSDOS under SCO 386 Unix using "make scodos". If you get
error messages "constant expected" in deflate.c, add -DDYN_ALLOC
to CFLAGS in your makefile entry.
If you have lots of memory, try compiling with -DBIG_MEM. If your
system supports mmap(), try compiling with -DMMAP. This generally
gives faster compression but uses more memory. See the Makefile
entry mmap_gcc for an example.
If none of these compiles, links, and functions properly on
your Unix system, see the file README for how to get help.
If the appropriate system was selected, then the executables
zip, zipnote and zipsplit will be created. You can copy them
to an appropriate directory in the search path using:
make install
The defaults are /usr/local/bin for the executables and
/usr/man/man1 for the manual page. Change the macros BINDIR
and MANDIR in makefile if appropriate.
You can use the command "set" to see the current search
path. If you are using the C-Shell (csh), enter the com-
mand:
rehash
so csh can find the new command in the path. You are now
ready to use Zip.
You can get rid of the now unnecessary source and object
files with:
cd ..
rm -r zipsrc
This will remove the directory zip and its contents created
by unzip. You should keep the zip20.zip file around though,
in case you need to build it again or want to give it to a
colleague.
You can add the following lines to the file /etc/magic for
usage by the 'file' command:
0 string PK\003\004 Zip archive
>4 string \011 (at least v0.9 to extract)
>4 string \012 (at least v1.0 to extract)
>4 string \013 (at least v1.1 to extract)
>4 string \024 (at least v2.0 to extract)
The steps for installation under MSDOS, OS/2, and VMS are
similar to the above: first unzip the distribution files
into their own directory. The system dependant files are
stored in special subdirectories. You may have to
copy or move them to the main sources directory.
Then under MSDOS do one of:
make makefile.msc
make -fmakefile.bor
for Microsoft or Borland C++, respectively. For Turbo C 2.0,
use the configuration file tcconfig.tc, the batch file
doturboc.bat and the project files zip.prj, zipnote.prj
and zipsplit.prj. Make sure to use the compact model.
Under OS/2:
nmake -f makefile.os2
for Microsoft C 6.00. Under VAX VMS:
@make_vaxc
or: @make_gcc
For command help on any of the zip* utilities, simply enter
the name with no arguments.
