- Short: Zip v2.2 .ZIP archive creator
- Author: Bunch of people (see documentation)
- Uploader: rraWedor@metrodowntown.com
- Version: v5.31, fUnZip v3.92
- Type: util/arc
- Replaces: util/arc/Zip.lha
-
- Zip v2.2 .ZIP archive creator. Creates .ZIP archives compatible with PKZip
- v2.04g.
-
- Note that if you use Zip with QWK or other offline mail readers, you probably
- want to use Zip v1.0 or lower, since most BBSs seem to only use PKZip v1.10 or
- lower to extract reply packets uploaded, and v1.10 can't unarchive files
- archived by Zip v2.1 unless you use the zero compression option.
-
- If anyone requires an earlier version of Zip (the latest one I could still find
- is version 0.93), I can upload it. Just write me and ask. If anyone has a
- version closer or equal to 1.0, please let *me* know! :)
-
- In addition to the following from the WHATSNEWS text file included in the
- archive, it appears that there is no longer a seperate encrypting and
- non-encrypting version, and there is no ZipCloak command in the case of the
- encrypting version.
