It is compatible withPKZIP 2.04g (Phil Katz ZIP) for MSDOS systems.  There is a companion to zipcalled unzip (of course) which you should be able to find the same placeyou got zip. See the file 'Where' for details on ftp sites and mailservers.This version of zip has been ported to a wide array of Unix and othermainframes, minis, and micros including VMS, OS/2, Minix, MSDOS, Windows NT,Atari and Amiga. Although highly compatible with PKware's PKZIP and PKUNZIPutilities of MSDOS fame, our primary objective has been one of portabilityand other-than-MSDOS functionality.  Features not found in the PKWare versioninclude creation of zip files in a pipe or on a device, VMS and OS/2 extendedfile attributes, conversion from Unix to MSDOS text file format; and, ofcourse, the ability to run on most of your favorite operating systems.And it's free.Main changes since zip 1.9p1:- new -i option (include only the following names).- new -T option to test zip file integrity before overwriting original- new -F and -FF (zipfix) options- new -D option (do not create entries for directories)- new -S option to include hidden/system files on MSDOS and OS/2- new -$ option to include a volume label on MSDOS and OS/2- new -ll option for CR LF to LF translation- new -p option for zipsplit (pause between diskettes)- speed up for the fast options (-1 to -3)- support for new systems (Amiga, TOPS 20, Human68k, ...)- many portability improvements- many bug fixesSee the file 'history' for a detailed list of all changes.This version does not support multi-volume archives as in pkzip 2.04g.This may be provided in a future version if time permits.Please read the file install.doc for information on how to compile andinstall zip, zipsplit and zipnote.  Please read the file zip.doc forinformation on how to use them.  The file "contents" is a completelist of the files you should have in this distribution.  Also, if youare using MSDOS, you should read the note on file formats at the endof the contents file.This version supports encryption, but the encryption code is distributedseparately because of the US export regulations. See the file 'Where'for access to the encryption code. Decryption can be made with unzip 5.0p1or later, or with zipcloak (which is provided in the encryption supplement).All bug reports should go to zip-bugs@wkuvx1.bitnet, and suggestions fornew features can be sent to info-zip@wkuvx1.bitnet (although we don'tpromise to use all suggestions). Patches should be sent as context diffsonly (diff -c).If you're considering a port, please check in with zip-bugs FIRST,since the code is constantly being updated behind the scenes.  We'llarrange to give you access to the latest source.  The alternative is thepossibility that your hard work will be tucked away in a sub-archiveand pretty much ignored. Ports to VM/CMS and MVS would be welcome.All bug reports should go to zip-bugs@wkuvx1.bitnet, and suggestions fornew features can be sent to info-zip@wkuvx1.bitnet (although we don'tpromise to use all suggestions). If you can't reach bitnet, tryzip-bugs%wkuvx1.bitnet@ukcc.uky.edu.If you'd like to keep up to date with our Zip (and companion UnZip utility)development, join the ranks of BETA testers, add your own thoughts and con-tributions, etc., send a two-line mail message containing the commands HELPand LIST (on separate lines in the body of the message, not on the subjectline) to mxserver@wkuvx1.bitnet.  You'll receive two messages listing thevarious Info-ZIP mailing-list formats which are available (and also variousunrelated lists) and instructions on how to subscribe to one or more of them(courtesy of Hunter Goatley).Frequently asked questions on zip and unzip:Q. When unzipping I get an error message about "compression method 8".A. Please get the latest version of unzip. See the file Where for details.Q. I can't extract this zip file that I just downloaded. I get   "zipfile is part of multi-disk archive" or some other message.A. Please make sure that you made the transfer in binary mode. Check   in particular that your copy has exactly the same size as the original.   Q. When running unzip, I get a message about "End-of-central-directory   signature not found".A. This usually means that your zip archive is damaged, or that you   have an uncompressed file with the same name in the same directory.   In the first case, it makes more sense to contact the person you   obtained the zip file from rather than the Info-Zip software   developers, and to make sure that your copy is strictly identical to   the original.  In the second case, use "unzip zipfile.zip" instead   of "unzip zipfile", to let unzip know which file is the zip archive   you want to extract.Q. Why doesn't zip do <something> just like PKZIP does?A. Zip is not a PKZIP clone and is not intended to be one.  In some   cases we feel PKZIP does not do the right thing (e.g., not   including pathnames by default); in some cases the operating system   itself is responsible (e.g., under Unix it is the shell which   expands wildcards, not zip).  Info-ZIP's and PKWARE's zipfiles   are interchangeable, not the programs.Q. Can I distribute zip and unzip sources and/or executables?A. You may redistribute the latest official distributions without any   modification, without even asking us for permission. You can charge   for the cost of the media (CDROM, diskettes, etc...) and a small copying   fee.  If you want to distribute modified versions please contact us at   zip-bugs@wkuvx1.bitnet first. You must not distribute beta versions.   The latest official distributions are always on ftp.uu.net in directory   /pub/archiving/zip and subdirectories.Q. Can I use the executables of zip and unzip to distribute my software?A. Yes, so long as it is made clear in the product documentation that   zip or unzip are not being sold, that the source code is freely   available, and that there are no extra or hidden charges resulting   from its use by or inclusion with the commercial product. Here is   an example of a suitable notice:     NOTE:  <Product> is packaged on this CD using Info-ZIP's compression     utility.  The installation program uses UnZip to read zip files from     the CD.  Info-ZIP's software (Zip, UnZip and related utilities) is     free and can be obtained as source code or executables from various     anonymous-ftp sites, including ftp.uu.net:/pub/archiving/zip/*.Q. Can I use the source code of zip and unzip in my commercial application?A. Yes, so long as you include in your product an acknowledgment and an   offer of the original compression sources for free or for a small   copying fee, and make clear that there are no extra or hidden charges   resulting from the use of the compression code by your product. In other   words, you are allowed to sell only your own work, not ours. If you have   special requirements contact us at zip-bugs@wkuvx1.bitnet.
