INSTALLATION AND INSTRUCTION DOCUMENT
ZWiz (ZIP Wizard)
AT Version 1.2
Copyright 1990 Robert S. King
Published by Wordsetters
P. O. Box 709
Winterville, GA 30683
Introduction
ZWiz is a set of WordPerfect 5.1 macros integrated as a full-featured
shell for PKWARE's popular ZIP archive program. ZWiz allows for easy ZIPing
and unZIPing of files while still in WordPerfect. Special features include
multiple command line options and the ability to retrieve a file from inside
a ZIP into WordPerfect. The program is menu-driven and is thus easy to use,
though you should read this document in its entirety before executing ZWiz.
You may wish to customize some of ZWiz's routines to fit your specific needs.
Alteration of these macros is permitted, though distribution of your custom-
ized version is strictly prohibited.
In any event, please keep backups of your original documents. Neither
the author nor Wordsetters will be held responsible for any damages resulting
from any use of this program whatsoever.
One other note on customization: WordPerfect Corporation is constantly
changing its program. This version of ZWiz has been tested on the June 29,
1990 release of WP 5.1. Each new release requires slight modifications to
the macros. The latest ZWiz will always be available for download from The
Express Line BBS (FidoNet 1:370/20)--node 1: (404) 742-8313 for first-time
callers, 2400 baud; node 2: (404) 742-7736, 9600 baud. Or you may receive a
copy through the mail by sending a self-addressed, stamped disk mailer with
floppy disk to the address shown above.
System Requirements
To run ZWiz you should have the following at minimum:
MS-DOS version 2.0 or greater
640K RAM
Hard Disk Drive C with at least 1 megabyte free
WordPerfect 5.1
PKZ110.EXE (Phil Katz's archive program containing PKZIP, PKUNZIP, etc.)
FV.COM (Vernon Buerg's archive file viewer, included in the ZWiz
archive--but see Acknowledgements/Disclaimers below for important
information).
Testing
Zwiz has been tested on several 80286 and 80386 machines, and it has
performed, in terms of elapsed time, comparably to other popular shells, such
as ArcMaster and Shez. ZWiz has also been tested on a 4.77 MHz PC, and it
has performed predictably slower. Users of such machines will have to
determine for themselves the program's suitability for their needs.
Automatic Installation
Execute the macro ZWSETUP.WPM and follow the prompts. It's the easiest
game in town!
Manual Installation
The distribution disk (or the archive file, if you downloaded ZWiz from
a bulletin board) contains two internal ZIP files. The complete list of
files is as follows:
ZWIZXT.ZIP, in which are found:
FV.COM Vernon Buerg's File Viewer (see Acknowledge-
ments/Disclaimers below)
FV.DOC Documentation for FV
ZWTAG.WPM Allows tagging of individual files within ZIP
ZWTAG2.WPM Allows tagging of files within ZIP; shows file comments
ZWUZ.WPM Main macro for unZIPing files
ZWZ.BAT General batch file for ZIPing files
ZWIZ.WPM Main ZWiz macro
ZWSAVE.WPM File saving routines
ZWZ2.WPM Controls new target directory selection for ZIPing files
ZWIZAT.ZIP, in which are found:
FV.COM see above ╔═══════════════════════════╗
FV.DOC see above ║ Note: The coding of these ║
ZWTAG.WPM see above ║ duplicate files differs ║
ZWTAG2.WPM see above ║ dramatically from the ║
ZWUZ.WPM see above ║ above. ║
ZWIZ.WPM see above ╚═══════════════════════════╝
ZWSAVE.WPM see above
ZWTASKS.WPM File handling routines
Separately in the main archive are:
README.1ST Setup info and version history for ZWiz
ZWIZXT.DOC ZWiz XT complete documentation, ASCII version
ZWIZXT.DOK ZWiz XT complete documentation, WordPerfect 5.1 version
ZWIZAT.DOC ZWiz AT complete documentation, ASCII version
ZWIZXT.DOK ZWiz AT complete documentation, WordPerfect 5.1 version
ZWSETUP.WPM ZWiz installation macro
All WPM files should be copied into the directory where you keep your macros
(press Shift-F1, then 6 [location of files] to determine where these files
should go). FV.COM should be copied to a directory specified in your boot-up
path statement (see AUTOEXEC.BAT file)--usually the root directory (C:\).
(Also, PKZIP & PKUNZIP must be in your path statement.) ZWiz will not
operate unless those files are properly placed!
Once all files are copied, I recommend that you rename or copy the main
executable macro, ZWIZ.WPM, to a shorthand name, such as ALTZ.WPM. This
method will allow quick execution of ZWiz. Alternatively, you may wish to
assign ZWIZ.WPM to your favorite keyboard (WPK).
Files Used by ZWiz
As needed, ZWiz creates two temporary files, ZW{ZIP}.SET and
ZW{CAT}.SET, in the directories affected by the command line options select-
ed. It also creates a temporary document in Document 2 containing options
and file list information. Do not delete or move these files while ZWiz is
running.
Memory Caveats
ZWiz macros operate by shelling to DOS and calling PKZIP.EXE,
PKUNZIP.EXE or FV.COM, as required. If you have a lot of TSRs (stay-resident
programs), there may be insufficient memory to run external programs. To get
an idea of how much memory you have available after WordPerfect is loaded,
press Shift-F1, C (for DOS command), then CHKDSK (assuming this program is in
your path statement). The amount of free memory will be shown in CHKDSK's
report. If it is less than 140K, you may have difficulty running ZWiz. If
such is the case, the only alternative is either to remove some/all of the
TSR programs or to use one of WordPerfect's start-up option commands to limit
the amount of work-space allotted to WordPerfect.
If you have expanded memory, your options are more flexible, particular-
ly if you are using an expanded memory manager, such as QEMM, which allows
TSRs and device drivers to be loaded into high memory, thus freeing up more
conventional memory. Even with expanded memory, you may benefit from
limiting WordPerfect's work-space. I recommend the following command line to
load WordPerfect:
WP/w=120,*
This limits WordPerfect's conventional memory work-space to 120K but allows
it to use all available expanded memory. See the WordPerfect manual for
other start-up options.
Finally, if you are using a WPK file (keyboard macros) and its contents
are large, there will be less memory available for ZWiz's use. One trick in
this case is to edit the individual keyboard definitions so that they execute
the needed macros rather than contain all the macro code itself. According-
ly, to reduce keyboard memory overhead, perform the following steps:
1. Press Shift-F1 (Setup Menu)
2. Press K (Keyboard Layout)
3. Press 7 (Edit--assuming the cursor rests on the keyboard you
wish to edit)
4. Move the cursor to whatever entry you wish to change and press
A (Action). If the screen appearing next contains the com-
plete macro (i.e., the entry does not already simply call
another macro), this definition is a prime candidate for
change.
5. Press F7 to get back to the list of key definitions.
6. With the cursor on the desired entry, press S (Save). You
will be prompted for a macro name. Enter whatever name you
wish.
7. Press A (Action) again to edit the contents.
8. Hold down the Del key until all the macro code is deleted.
(If the macro is very long, you may go back to the definition
list, delete the item from the menu and simply create it
anew.)
9. Press Alt-F10, enter the name of the macro you just saved.
Finally, press Ctrl-V ENTER. As an example, suppose we had
just saved the contents to a macro called NEWMAC.WPM. Your
screen should now show the following string:
{Macro}newmac{Enter}
This short string requires less memory but the needed macro is
still available from the same keystrokes.
ZIP Wizard Error Handling
Every effort has been made to make ZWiz safe to operate. If you will
follow the prompts, you will have no problem. Nevertheless, a few pitfalls
should be mentioned up-front:
1. Do not press any keys that aren't called for in the prompts,
especially when in a file list display. Even though a lot of error
handling code has been programmed into ZWiz, there are a few
situations in which WordPerfect inhibits the ability to handle
error situations.
2. If, for any reason, ZWiz aborts an operation, leaving text on the
screen, simply delete the text and start anew.
3. Again, keep backups of your files, especially until you are thor-
oughly familiar with the way ZWiz operates.
4. A maximum of three files at a time can be tagged for extraction
while in the contents list of any ZIP file (however, files tagged
for deletion may be any number). This is not the author's limita-
tion. The limit is imposed by WordPerfect, which will allow only
59 characters on the "DOS Commands" command line; it is also a
limit of the PKUNZIP program (which, unlike PKZIP, does not allow
the creation of an ASCII file containing a list of files to
process).
Keystroke Rules
In all ZWiz prompts for ZIP filename entry, whether for ZIP or unZIP,
there is never any need to type the ZIP extension. This is understood by the
program.
IMPORTANT! Turn your CAPS LOCK off! ZWiz will accept only lower case
letters for its menu options.
Zip Wizard Operation
Assuming all installation is complete: To begin ZIPing or unZIPing
files, execute ZWIZ.WPM (or whatever name you've given it). ZWiz will first
verify that Document 2 is empty. If not, you are shown the following message:
Document 2 must be empty to run ZWiz.
Please save or remove file from memory
and restart macro. Press ENTER to continue.
When the above condition is satisfied, the file list of the current directory
displays with the ZWiz initial menu, a typical sample of which is shown in
figure 1:

Figure 1. Initial ZWiz Menu and Directory Display.
The options shown at the top of the screen are generally available, with some
differences, in other ZWiz menu structure, such as UnZIP options. These are
discussed in detail in the sections following. The initial menu is intended
primarily as a shell to the Options menus.
ZIPing Files
If you press z at the menu shown in Figure 1, the ZIP menu immediately pops
up, as in the following example (figure 2):

Figure 2. ZIP Options Menu and Directory Display.
ZIP Menu Options
Top Menu
Go DIR: Pressing G will allow you to change the file directory and will
show the following prompt:
▓▓▓▓▓ Enter drive letter to change to: ▓▓▓▓▓
Then you are asked to type in the directory name:
▓▓▓▓▓ Enter directory to change to (omit \), press ENTER ▓▓▓▓▓
Important! When this prompt appears, do not type the leading \ character
before the main directory name. The necessary backslash characters are
already in the program. However, if you wish to log onto a subdirectory, you
would type that character between directory and subdirectory. The following
examples demonstrate the proper syntax:
For changing to a new directory on a hard disk:
Incorrect: \wpfiles
\wpfiles\letters
Correct: wpfiles
wpfiles\letters
Exception to the rule: If the prompt requests full pathname, then the
\ character should be included.
For changing to a floppy disk, simply press ENTER when the prompt for
directory appears.
New Target DIR: This sets the drive and directory into which the ZIP
file will go. For example, it is possible to tag files in the current
directory and place the resulting ZIP file in another directory. After
pressing e, you are shown the following prompt:
▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓···········Please·choose·a·number:···············▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓
▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓·1.·Type·in·full·pathname·(e.g.,·D:\ARCHIVE)·····▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓
▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓·2.·Look·at·directories,·then·type·full·pathname·▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓
If you choose 1, you are prompted for drive and directory. If you choose 2,
you are given the following:
▓▓▓▓▓▓·Use·arrow·&·return·keys·to·move·around·directories,·▓▓▓▓▓▓
▓▓▓▓▓▓·press·F7·when·ready·to·choose·target·directory······▓▓▓▓▓▓
A few words of caution are in order regarding change of target directory:
Common sense must be used. If, for example, you wanted to "view comments,"
you would not want the target directory changed, as this option will view,
not extract files. Likewise, you would not change the target directory if
you wanted to delete files from a ZIP archive.
This document assumes you are already familiar with PKZIP command
parameters. If not, you would be wise to review them. Of course, you may
routinely need only a few of the ZIP (or unZIP) options. Most users will
stick to ZIP options a, f, s, and m; and to unZIP options a, n, and o
(discussed later).
1. Path: temporarily removes the top menu and shows your current
drive/directory:
You·are·here:·=============>
Press·ENTER·to·continue
2. UnZIP Menu: takes you to the UnZIP options menu (figure 5 below).
3. File Tasks: When called, this menu will allow basic file handling
such as copy/move/delete, etc. (see File Tasks section below).
Begin ZIP: This is the key to make it go! Once you have selected all
the options and tagged all the files you need, press this key to begin the
ZIP operation.
Movement: Arrow keys; PgUp-PgDn: These function exactly in the same
manner as the normal WordPerfect keys.
Find File: Pressing i will allow you to move the cursor quickly to the
needed file in the directory list. The following prompt appears:
Type name to search for, press ENTER
Help: Allows you to search for the topic you need help with (online
help not available in the shareware version, though the DOK & DOC files
included in the ZWiz archive contain complete information).
Exit/F1: Pressing either the x or F1 keys will exit ZWiz. Please note
also that the F1 (cancel) key can be used at any point in ZWiz to cancel the
current operation.
Listmask: Sometimes you will not want to wade through a long file list.
You may, through the use of wildcards (*), select the file specifications you
need to see. Pressing l will first give you the following options:
▓▓▓ Please choose filename pattern: ▓▓▓
▓▓▓ 1. *.zip 2. *.doc 3. *.txt 4. *.wpm 5. *.* 6. Other (you type) ▓▓▓
ENTER views ZIP: To view a ZIP file, simply move the cursor to the file
and press ENTER. The directory of the ZIP will promptly display.
6 Looks: To view a non-ZIP file, move the cursor to the file and press
6.
* tags: To tag a file for ZIPing (do not tag a file with the ZIP
extension unless you want it added to the archive), move the cursor to the
file and press *. The file will be added to a list for processing (which may
be reviewed at any time--see Bottom Menu, item y below). Note that only the
last file you tagged will appear with the * in the directory list, but all
tagged files will be shown in the y options display.
Alt-F5 tags all. This assumes that you want every file in the current
directory added to a ZIP file. Before selecting this operation, be sure to
choose the needed option(s) (see Bottom Menu below).
- untags under cursor. If you wish to untag a file from the processing
list, move the cursor to the file and press -.
Bottom Menu
A brief synopsis of the ZIP Options shown at the bottom of the directory
display (figure 2) is as follows:
a. add: Will add all tagged files to the designated ZIP file. If the
ZIP file already exists in the current directory, all non-ZIP files will be
placed in that ZIP archive.
c. comment files: Will prompt you to add new comments, or to change old
ones, to each file within the designated ZIP archive. This is different from
the z option, which adds a comment to the general ZIP file name, not to its
individual files.
d. delete w/comments: Pressing d prompts you for a filename and then
retrieves the directory of the designated ZIP file, asking you (figure 3) to
tag the file(s) you wish to delete from the archive. This is the same as s
below, except the directory of the ZIP file is displayed with comments, if
any, which you have attached to the files within the archive. Please note
that if the ZIP archive contains many files, it could take up to 25 seconds
(depending on your computer's speed) before you see the directory display.

Figure 3. Sample File Tagging Screen.
s. delete w/o comments: Retrieves the directory of the designated ZIP
file and prompts you (figure 3) to tag the file(s) you wish to delete from
the archive. This is the same as d, except that the comments column will not
appear (this method is thus a little quicker).
f. freshen: Unlike other ZWiz functions, it is not necessary to tag
files before selecting this option. Freshening updates files that already
exist in the ZIP file with same-named files with later times and dates. When
f is pressed, the following prompts displays:
Type name of file to freshen, press ENTER
k. keep same date: The current ZIP file date is kept no matter what the
dates of the files added to it are.
m. move: The tagged files are deleted from disk after being compressed
and copied into the ZIP archive.
o. set to latest: The ZIP file date is set to the date of the newest
file within it.
u. update: The existing ZIP file will be updated with files only if they
are not currently in the ZIP file, or if they are dated later than those with
the same name already in the ZIP file.
v. view w/comments: Unlike pressing ENTER to view a ZIP, this option
displays the directory of the chosen archive file(s) and also shows any
comments written for those files. It is possible to view more than one file
from a single directory by typing an asterisk (*) when prompted for a
filename. Do not include the ZIP extension.
z. ZIP comment: Adds a comment to the general ZIP file, not to the
files contained within.
y. Reset options/files: Pressing y will immediately display the current
tagged file list, the options chosen, and show you the target directory. You
will also see a menu at the bottom which allows you to reset options and
files. A sample screen is shown below (figure 4):
Options: -m
Files:
TEXT1.DOC
TEXT2.DOC
TEXT3.DOC
Target destination is c:\document
Please choose a number:
1. Reset options; 2. Reset file list; 3. Reset both; 4. Leave as is
Figure 4. Reset Options/Files Menu.
4. Make SX: This option converts an existing ZIP file to an EXE file
(self-extracting archive). It is not necessary to tag the ZIP filename; you
are prompted for the name immediately after pressing 4.
Sample ZIP Session
First let's assume we have a file (TRASH.CAN) in the current directory
(C:\JUNK) which we want to add to the ZIP file (OZONE.ZIP) located in another
drive and directory (D:\RECYCLE):
ZWIZ.WPM is executed and the menu in figure 2 displays (with a
different file list, of course).
Use the arrow keys to move to the file TRASH.CAN.
Press *
The file is tagged and placed in the Files list (as in figure ?),
after which the directory is redisplayed.
Press a
This places the proper PKZIP option parameter in the Options list
(as in figure 4).
NOTE: Sometimes the letter shown in the Options field will differ
from the letter you pressed at the Options Menu. This is because
of conflicts between PKZIP parameters and the available ZWiz menu
options. You need only know that ZWiz will issue the proper
command to PKZIP or to PKUNZIP, as the case may be.
Press e
The prompt appears (figure ?)
Press 1
Press d (to enter the drive letter)
Type recycle
Press ENTER
Press b (to begin the ZIP operation)
Type ozone
Press ENTER
The ZIP operation will begin.
unZIPing Files
Pressing u from the initial ZWiz menu (figure 1) or 2 from the ZIP
options menu (figure 2) will take you to the UnZIP options menu, as in the
following example (figure 5):
▓▓▓ Go DIR; New target DIR; 1. Path; 2. ZIP menu; 3. File Tasks. Begin unZIP.▓▓▓
▓▓▓ Movement: Arrow keys; PgUp-PgDn; Find File. Help; Exit/F1; Listmask.▓▓▓

Figure 5. Initial UnZIP Options Menu (w/option to change target directory).
Top Menu
Again, the options on the Top Menu are the same as for the ZIP menu. Like
the ZIP options menu, pressing b begins the archive operation (see Top Menu
under ZIPing Files above).
Bottom Menu
The unZIP options (bottom menu) are explained as follows (see PKUNZIP
documentation for greater detail):
a. UnZIP w/ask: All files are extracted to the target directory; the
original ZIP file remains. If a file already exists in the target directory,
you are prompted to overwrite.
d. Create DIRS: allows recursive unZIPing; i.e., if the ZIP file stored
the complete path information of the original files, the directories will be
recreated upon extraction.
n. Extract only newer: Only files newer than the ones of the same
name(s) already in the target directory will be extracted.
o. Overwrite: All files in the ZIP are extracted to the target directory
without confirmation for overwriting any existing files of the same name.
q. Retrieve w/o comments: Unlike r below, this is for a quick display
of the ZIP files contents. Only one file at a time may be processed. When
the file list displays, the screen displays as in figure 3 above.
r. Retrieve w/comments: This is the same as q above, except that the
ZIP file's directory is displayed with file comments in the second column, if
any. This method of retrieval is noticeably slower than q, but is helpful in
identifying potential file deletions.
t. Test integrity: checks the designated ZIP file to ensure it is not
corrupt. You may check more than one ZIP file simply by tagging each file
you wish to test.
u. Tag w/comment: Same as s, but shows file comments, if any. This
displays the contents of the chosen ZIP file and prompts you to tag the
file(s) you wish to extract (see figure 3).
w. Tag w/o comment: Same as u above, but does not show comments.
y. Reset opts/files: Exactly the same as y on the ZIP options menu (see
above).
4. Do SX: Any self-extracting archive may be unZIPed using this option.
That's all there is to it!
File Tasks
Pressing 3 either from the initial ZWiz menu or from the ZIP or unZIP options
menus takes you to a file handling menu from which you may do routine copy/
move/delete tasks. This is generally the same as WordPerfect's own menu and
is included in ZWiz only for convenience. For example, if you have been in
the ZIP options menu and have tagged files for processing, you may go to the
File Tasks menu without erasing the work you've done.
Shareware versus Registered Version
The registered version of ZWiz contains the following added features:
1. Online help screen
2. More ZIP & unZIP options.
Registration
Basic registration of ZWiz is $15.00 + $2.50 postage and handling. That
amount entitles you to future upgrades of the program for only a nominal
handling cost. On receipt of initial payment, you will be mailed the
registered version. Thereafter, you may receive any upgrade by sending a
self-addressed, stamped disk mailer with floppy disk to the address shown on
the order form at the end of this document. You can determine if a new
version has been released by calling the Express Line BBS--see third
paragraph under Introduction above. The Shareware and Registered versions
follow the same numbering scheme--e.g., ZWIZ10.ZIP, ZWIZ11.ZIP (version 1.0,
1.1, etc.).
I hope you find ZWiz useful, and I thank you in advance for your
support.
Future Plans
ZWiz will be expanded or improved as interest dictates. If enough
WordPerfect users want versions compatible with other archive formats, such
as PAK, ARC, LZH, ZOO, etc., those revisions will be offered.
User input/suggestions are always encouraged and considered.
