- I have uploaded the source and executables for the new release of
- Zip 1.9 and Unzip 5.0 to cs.orst.edu and nova.cc.purdue.edu, both
- in the pub/next/submissions directory. The files are:
-
- unzip50.tar.Z unzip source
- zip19.zip zip source
- zip19-next.tar.Z above compiled under 2.1 (zip & unzip)
-
- This new release has countless new features over the old release, but
- some highlights are better compression using the new PKZIP "deflate"
- method and the ability to use zip and funzip as filters in place of
- compress and zcat.
