// Author: John Pritchard-Williams
// Email : monojohnny@yahoo.com
// Version : 1.0
// Developed in Windows 98 environment, using JDK1.1.6 from sun
// Tested on Psion 5mx only - would appreciate confirmation on other platforms.
//
// Zippy was kept deliberately kept small (currently under 10k) - therefore minimal error
// handling is performed.
// FOR INSTANCE - NO "Overwrite y/n" dialogue is provided - zippy will simply overwrite
// files when extracting - it is advisable therefore to make use of the "LIST CONTENTS" feature !!
//
// Current known problems / 'features':
//
// zippy can NOT handle absolute filenames (eg c:\temp\xyz.txt CANNOT be extracted).
// zippy currently SKIPS any "META-INF/MANIFEST.MF" files.
// zippy will ALWAYS try and use the directory "C:\DOCUMENTS\UNZIP" path
// - assumes "C:\DOCUMENTS" exists, and creates ~UNZIP if not present
// zippy will abort part-way-through an extraction process if a single file/directory extraction
// fails.
// zippy does not have an EPOC 'look and feel'
//
// Possible future enhancements:
//
// Provide a "select output directory" dialogue
// Provide handling for absolute filenames
// Bring look and feel in line with standard EPOC look and feel.
//
