-
- Files marked "required*" are also needed to compile ZipInfo. There are
- Unix, OS/2 and MS-DOS targets to make ZipInfo near the bottom of Makefile
- (zipinfo, zi_dos, zi_os2, zi_gcc, zi_icc). The sub-archives are marked
- either "CR LF" or "LF" to indicate the line-endings format of the contained
- text files.
-
- The file ship.c is the stand-alone source file for the ship utility, a
- program for ASCII-encoding, splitting, e-mailing, and decoding binaries
- (similar to uuencode/uudecode but far more useful). This is the preferred
- format for sending/receiving zipfiles to and from zip-bugs and Info-ZIP.
- Instructions on how to use it are included in the comments near the top
- of ship.c, and there are Unix, OS/2 and DOS makefile targets in Makefile
- (sorry, we haven't got this fully integrated into all the other sub-
- archives). Ship is more fully supported in the Zip distribution; if
- you've already got it from there, you don't need to make it again.
-
- The Atari ST support is in the form of patches against UnZip 4.1; there
- are more details in the ATARI sub-archive Contents file. Amiga support
- has not been tested since version 4.1 or earlier (the makefiles, however,
- have been updated to reflect the new code structure, and any changes
- required shouldn't be TOO extensive; maybe--dare we say it?--none...).
-
- Encryption and decryption code for both Zip and UnZip (the only file
- required for UnZip is crypt.c) is available from the following sites
- (the filenames may differ slightly, if later versions become available):
-
- From the US:
- pit-manager.mit.edu:/pub/zip/crypt/zipcrypt.shar
- (mail server at mail-server@pit-manager.mit.edu)
- wuarchive.wustl.edu:/mirrors3/garbo.uwasa.fi/arcutil/zcrypt10.zip
- Outside the US:
- garbo.uwasa.fi:/pc/arcutil/zcrypt10.zip
- ftp.win.tue.nl:/pub/compression/zip/zcrypt10.zip
- ftp.inria.fr:/system/arch-compr/zcrypt10.zip
- ftp.informatik.tu-muenchen.de:/pub/utils/archiver/zcrypt10.zip
- (mail server at ftp-mailer@ftp.informatik.tu-muenchen.de)
-
- Non-US users, please do NOT ftp from the US site (US regulations and
- all that). Likewise, US users, please do not ftp from the European
- sites (it's not illegal, but it sure is a waste of expensive bandwidth).
- If someone repackages zipcrypt.shar or zcrypt10.zip as a VMS .share
- file and places it on a VMS archive site somewhere, please let us know
- (send e-mail to zip-bugs at the address listed in README). Likewise
- for Mac- or Atari-specific formats (or any others).
