MacZip is a cross-platform compatible tool and
includes both Zip (for compression) and Unzip (for extraction).

zip is a compression and file packaging utility for  Unix,
VMS,  MSDOS, OS/2, Windows NT, Minix, Atari and Macintosh,
Amiga and Acorn RISC OS.

Unzip unpacks zip archives.
The zip and unzip programs can work with archives pro-
duced by PKZIP, and PKZIP and PKUNZIP can work with
archives produced by zip. zip version 2.2 is compatible
with PKZIP 2.04. 

This port supports also Apple-event.So you can install it in your 
WWW-Browser as a helper-app. A additional apple event "do_cmd"
gives you the full power of command-line invocation via 
applescript.

If you have any problems/questions don't hesitate 
and send a email to me.


Most important / features are:

The complete set of macintosh finder-info is stored:
FXinfo, Mac-Pathname, file-dates and Finder-Comments 
are now stored. 

It's possible to encrypt/decrypt archives. 
        
     

System requirements:
MacZip requires at least System 7 and a Macintosh with a minimum of a 
Motorola 68020 or PowerPC 601 processor. Other configurations may work
but it is not tested at all.

The application is distributed as a fat binary with both regular 68K 
and native PowerPC versions included.
