--> My usage notes:
--> To make a zip file:
pkzip -exx -p -r zipfile.zip c:\mydir\*.*
- creates zipfile.zip in the current directory
- adds all files in the directory c:\mydir\
- "-exx" for maximum compression
- "-p" to store pathnames
- "-r" to include subfolders--> To unzip a file:
pkunzip -d zipfile.zip c:\mydir\unzipdir\
- unzips zipfile.zip to c:\mydir\unzipdir\
- "-d" to preserve original pathnames--> To create a self-extractor from a zip file:
zip2exe zipfile.zip
- use "-e" to make a .ZIP out of an .EXE
- note: paths are NOT preserved by the self-extractor, even if the zip from which it was created had preserved pathnames.
