.TH ZIPINFO 1 "19 Aug 92 (v1.0)"
.SH NAME
zipinfo \- list detailed information about a ZIP archive file
.SH SYNOPSIS
\fBzipinfo\fP [\-\fB1smlvht\fP] \fRfile\fP[\fR.zip\fP] [\fRfilespec\fP\ ...]
.SH ARGUMENTS
.IP \fIfile\fP[\fI.zip\fP] \w'[\fIfilespec\fP]'u+2m
Path of the ZIP archive. The suffix ``\fR.zip\fP'' is applied
if the \fRfile\fP specified does not exist. Note that
self-extracting ZIP files are supported; just specify
the ``\fR.exe\fP'' suffix yourself.
.IP [\fIfilespec\fP]
An optional list of archive members to be processed.
Expressions may be used to match multiple members; be sure to quote
expressions that contain characters interpreted by the Unix shell. See
PATTERN MATCHING (below) for more details.
.SH OPTIONS
.PD 0
.IP \-1 \w'\-1'u+2m
list filenames only, one per line (useful for pipes)
.IP \-s
list zipfile info in short Unix ``ls \-l'' format: default
.IP \-m
list zipfile info in medium Unix ``ls \-l'' format
.IP \-l
list zipfile info in long Unix ``ls \-l'' format
.IP \-v
list zipfile information in verbose, multi-page format
.IP \-h
list header line
.IP \-t
list totals for files listed or for all files
.PD
.SH PATTERN MATCHING
All archive members are listed unless a \fIfilespec\fP is provided to
specify a subset of the archive members. The \fIfilespec\fP is similar
to an \fRegrep\fP expression, and may contain:
.PP
.ta \w'[...]'u+2m
* matches a sequence of 0 or more characters
.br
? matches exactly 1 character
.br
\\nnn matches the character having octal code nnn
.PD 0
.IP [...] \w'[...]'u+2m
matches any single character found inside the brackets; ranges
are specified by a beginning character, a hyphen, and an ending
character. If an exclamation point or a carat (`!' or `^') follows
the left bracket, then the range of characters matched is complemented
with respect to the ASCII character set (that is, anything except the
characters inside the brackets is considered a match).
.PD
.SH DESCRIPTION
.I ZipInfo
lists technical information about a ZIP archive, including information
file access permissions, encryption status, type of compression, version
and operating system of compressing program, and the like. The default
option is to list files in the following format:
.PP
.X "-rw-rwl--- 1.5 unx 2802 t- defX 11-Aug-91 13:48 perms.2660"
.PP
The last three fields are clearly the modification date and time of
the file, and its name. The case of the filename is respected; thus
files which come from MS-DOS PKZIP are always capitalized. If the file
was zipped with a stored directory name, that is also displayed as part
of the filename.
.PP
The second and third fields indicate that the file was zipped under
Unix with version 1.5 of \fRZip\fP (a beta version). Since it comes
from Unix, the file
permissions at the beginning of the line are printed in Unix format.
The uncompressed file-size (2802 in this example) is the fourth field.
.PP
The fifth field consists of two characters, either of which may take
on several values. The first character may be either `t' or `b', indicating
that \fRZip\fP believes the file to be text or binary, respectively;
but if the file is encrypted, \fIZipInfo\fP
notes this fact by capitalizing the character (`T' or `B'). The second
character may also take on four values, depending on whether there is
an extended local header and/or an ``extra field'' associated with the
file (explained in PKWare's APPNOTE.TXT). If neither exists, the character
will be a hyphen (`\-'); if there is an extended local header but no extra
field, `l'; if the reverse, `x'; and if both exist, `X'. Thus the
file in this example is (apparently) a text file, is not encrypted, and
has neither an extra field nor an extended local header associated with it.
The example below, on the other hand, is an encrypted binary file with an
extra field:
.PP
.X "RWD,R,R 0.9 vms 168 Bx shrk 9-Aug-91 19:15 perms.0644"
.PP
Extra fields are used by PKWare for authenticity verification(?) and
possibly other purposes, and by Info-ZIP's \fRZip\fP
1.6 and later to store OS/2, Macintosh and VMS file attributes.
This example presumably falls into
the latter class, then. Note that the file attributes are listed in
VMS format. Other possibilities for the host operating system include
OS/2 with High Performance File System (HPFS), DOS or OS/2 with File
Allocation Table (FAT) file system, and Macintosh, denoted
as follows:
.PP
.X "arc,,rw, 1.0 os2 5358 Tl i4:3 4-Dec-91 11:33 longfilename.hpfs"
.X "arc,hid,rdo,sys dos 4096 b- i4:2 14-Jul-91 12:58 EA DATA. SF"
.X "--w------- 1.0 mac 17357 bx i8:2 4-May-92 04:02 unzip.macr"
.PP
File attributes in the first two cases are indicated in a DOS-like format,
where the file may or may not have its archive bit set; may be hidden or not;
may be read-write or read-only; and may be a system file or not. If the
attributes are too long, the version number of the encoding software is
omitted. (The information is still available in the verbose listing,
however.) Interpretation of Macintosh file attributes needs some work yet.
.PP
Finally, the sixth field indicates
the compression method and possible sub-method used. There are six methods
known at present: storing (no compression), reducing, shrinking, imploding,
tokenizing, and deflating. In addition, there are four levels of reducing
(1 through 4); four types of imploding (4K or 8K sliding dictionary, and
2 or 3 Shannon-Fano trees); and three levels of deflating (fast, normal,
maximum compression). \fIZipInfo\fP represents these methods and their
sub-methods as follows: ``stor''; ``re:1,'' ``re:2,'' etc.; ``shrk'';
``i4:2,'' ``i8:3,'' etc.; ``tokn''; and ``defF,'' ``defN,'' and ``defX.''
.PP
The medium and long listings are almost identical to the
short format except that they add information on the file's
compression. The medium format indicates the file's
compression factor as a percentage:
.PP
.X "-rw-rwl--- 1.5 unx 2802 t- 81% defX 11-Aug-91 13:48 perms.2660"
.PP
In this example, the file has been compressed by more than a factor of
five; the compressed data are only 19% of the original size. The long
format gives the compressed file's size in bytes, instead:
.PP
.X "-rw-rwl--- 1.5 unx 2802 t- 538 defX 11-Aug-91 13:48 perms.2660"
.PP
In addition to individual file information, a default zipfile listing
also includes header and trailer lines:
.PP
.X "Archive: OS2.zip 5453 bytes 5 files"
.X ",,rw, 1.0 os2 730 b- i4:3 26-Jun-92 23:40 Contents"
.X ",,rw, 1.0 os2 3710 b- i4:3 26-Jun-92 23:33 makefile.os2"
.X ",,rw, 1.0 os2 8753 b- i8:3 26-Jun-92 15:29 os2unzip.c"
.X ",,rw, 1.0 os2 98 b- stor 21-Aug-91 15:34 unzip.def"
.X ",,rw, 1.0 os2 95 b- stor 21-Aug-91 17:51 zipinfo.def"
.X "5 files, 13386 bytes uncompressed, 4951 bytes compressed: 63%"
.PP
The header line gives the name of the archive, its total size, and the
total number of files; the trailer gives the number of files listed,
their total uncompressed size, and their total compressed size (not
including any of \fRZip\fP's internal overhead). If, however, one or
more \fIfilespec\fPs are provided, the header and trailer lines are
not listed. This behavior is also similar to that of Unix's ``ls \-l'';
it may be overridden by specifying the \-h and \-t options explicitly.
In such a case the listing format must also be specified explicitly,
since \-h or \-t (or both) in the absence of other options implies
that ONLY the header or trailer line (or both) is listed. See the
EXAMPLES section below for a semi-intelligible translation of this
nonsense.
.PP
The verbose listing is self-explanatory. It also lists file
comments and the zipfile comment, if any, and the number of
bytes of OS/2 extended attributes stored. Note that the
latter number will in general NOT match the number given by
OS/2's ``dir'' command; OS/2 always reports the number of
bytes required in 16-bit format, whereas \fIZipInfo\fP
always reports the 32-bit storage.
.PD
.SH ENVIRONMENT OPTIONS
Modifying \fIZipInfo\fP's default behavior via options placed in
an environment variable can be a bit complicated to explain, due to
\fIZipInfo\fP's attempts to handle various defaults in an intuitive,
yet Unix-like, manner. Nevertheless, there is some underlying logic.
In brief,
there are three ``priority levels'' of options: the default options;
environment options, which can override or add to the defaults; and
explicit options given by the user, which can override or add to
either of the above.
.PP
The default listing format, as noted above, corresponds roughly
to the "zipinfo \-hst" command (except when individual zipfile members
are specified).
A user who prefers the long-listing format (\-l) can make use of the
\fIZIPINFO\fP environment variable to change this default:
.ta \w'tabset'u +\w'ZIPINFO=\-l; export ZIPINFO'u+3m
.PP
.IP "\tsetenv ZIPINFO \-l\tUnix C shell"
.br
.IP "\tZIPINFO=\-l; export ZIPINFO\tUnix Bourne shell"
.PP
.IP "\tset ZIPINFO=\-l\tOS/2 or MS-DOS"
.PP
.IP "\tdefine ZIPINFO_OPTS ""\-l""\tVMS (quotes for LOWERCASE)"
.PP
If, in addition, the user dislikes the trailer line, \fIZipInfo\fP's
concept of ``negative options'' may be used to override the default
inclusion of the line. This is accomplished by preceding the undesired
option with one or more minuses: e.g., ``\-l\-t'' or ``\-\-tl'', in this
example. The first hyphen is the regular switch character, but the one
before the `t' is a minus sign. The dual use of hyphens may seem a little
awkward, but it's reasonably intuitive nonetheless: simply ignore the
first hyphen and go from there. It is also consistent with the behavior
of the Unix command \fRnice\fP(1).
.PD
.SH EXAMPLES
To get a basic, short-format listing of the complete contents of a ZIP
archive ``storage.zip,'' with both header and totals lines, use only
the archive name as an argument to zipinfo:
.PP
.IP "\t\fIzipinfo\fP storage"
.PP
To produce a basic, long-format listing (not verbose), including header and
totals lines, use \-l:
.PP
.IP "\t\fIzipinfo\fP \-l storage"
.PP
To list the complete contents of the archive without header and totals
lines, either negate the \-h and \-t options or else specify the contents
explicitly:
.PP
.IP "\t\fIzipinfo\fP \-\-h\-t storage"
.IP "\t\fIzipinfo\fP storage \e*"
.PP
(where the backslash is required only if the shell would otherwise expand
the `*' wildcard, as in Unix when globbing is turned on--double quotes around
the asterisk would have worked as well). To turn off the totals line by
default, use the environment variable (C shell is assumed here):
.PP
.IP "\tsetenv ZIPINFO \-\-t"
.IP "\t\fIzipinfo\fP storage"
.PP
To get the full, short-format listing of the first example again, given
that the environment variable is set as in the previous example, it is
necessary to specify the \-s option explicitly, since the \-t
option by itself implies that ONLY the footer line is to be printed:
.PP
.IP "\tsetenv ZIPINFO \-\-t"
.IP "\t\fIzipinfo\fP \-t storage\t[only totals line]"
.IP "\t\fIzipinfo\fP \-st storage\t[full listing]"
.PP
The \-s option, like \-m and \-l, includes headers and footers by default,
unless otherwise specified. Since the environment variable specified no
footers and that has a higher precedence than the default behavior of \-s,
an explicit \-t option was necessary to produce the full listing. Nothing
was indicated about the header, however, so the \-s option was sufficient.
Note that both the \-h and \-t options, when used by themselves or with
each other, override any default listing of member files; only the header
and/or footer are printed. This behavior will be more
useful when \fIZipInfo\fP accepts wildcards for the zipfile name; one
may then summarize the contents of all zipfiles with a single command.
.PP
To list information on a single file within the archive, in medium format,
specify the filename explicitly:
.PP
.IP "\t\fIzipinfo\fP \-m storage unshrink.c"
.PP
The specification of any member file, as in this example, will override
the default header and totals lines; only the single line of information
about the requested file will be printed. This is intuitively what one
would expect when requesting information about a single file. For multiple
files, it is often useful to know the total compressed and uncompressed
size; in such cases \-t may be specified explicitly:
.PP
.IP "\t\fIzipinfo\fP \-mt storage ""*.[ch] Mak\e*"
.PP
Finally, to get maximal information about the ZIP archive, use the verbose
option. It is usually wise to pipe the output into a filter such as
\fRmore\fP(1):
.PP
.IP "\t\fIzipinfo\fP \-v storage | more"
.PD
.SH TIPS
The author finds it convenient to set up an alias ``ii'' for \fIZipInfo\fP
on systems which allow aliases, or else to set up a batch file ``ii.bat''
or to rename the executable to ``ii.exe'' on systems such as MS-DOS which
have no provision for aliases. The ``ii'' usage parallels the common
``ll'' alias for long listings in Unix, and the similarity between the
outputs of the two commands was intentional.

.SH AUTHOR
Greg Roelofs (also known as Cave Newt). \fIZipInfo\fP is partly based on
S. H. Smith's \fRunzip\fP and contains pattern-matching code by J. Kercheval,
but mostly it was written from scratch. The OS/2 extra-field code is by
Kai Uwe Rommel.
