- Actually, Info-zip's Zip and Unzip are available on sonata (both
- source and compiled). "pkzip" implies a product of PKWare, which
- it is not. Info-zip is entirely independent of PKWare, but is
- fully compatible with PKWare's products for the MSDOS and other
- worlds. Oh, and Info-zip's stuff is free. PKWare's isn't.
