- PCArc v1.10f (C) Copyright 1994 by PC Pulse Computer Systems
-
- The Arciving program included in this package implementation of
- a ZIP archive maker. The archives produced by the Shrink program
- are compatible with those created by PKWare's PKZIP program.
-
- At this time, only two of the six compression methods used by PKZIP have
- been implemented. Input files are compressed using the "shrinking"
- method. If shrinking does not produce a file smaller than the original,
- the input file will be "stored" into the ZIP archive with no compression
- applied.
-
- The syntax for this program is:
-
- PCArc [d:][\path\]PCArcname[.zip] [[d:][\path\]filespec [...]]
-
- where 'PCArcname' is the name of the file to be created, and
- 'filespec' represents a DOS file specification (wildcards are allowed)
- limiting the files to be included in the archive.
-
- The only command line parameter that is required is the name of the
- file to be processed. If no filename extension is supplied, '.PCA' is
- assumed. If no outpath is specified, the current drive/subdirectory
- will be used. If no filespec(s) are entered, '*.*' will be assumed.
-
- Examples:
-
- * Create a archive called OneFile.PCA that contains all '.txt'
- files in the subdirectory e:\work:
-
- PCArc OneFile.PCA e:\work\*.txt
-
- * Create a archive called OneFile.PCA that contains all files in
- the current subdirectory:
-
- PCArc OneFile
