- WinZip is distributed as Shareware. This means that users are
- encouraged, subject to restrictions described in the License Agreement,
- to share copies of this program with friends, associates and bulletin
- boards. Please remember that if you use this software you are required
- to pay the registration fee of $29 as described in the section titled
- Copyright/License Agreement/Warranty.
-
- * Overview
-
- ZIP files contain other files. Typically the files in a ZIP file are
- compressed. ZIP files make it easy to group files and makes
- transporting and copying these files faster.
-
- WinZip(TM) is a ZIP file manager for Windows. It provides an
- easy-to-use SAA/CUA compatible interface for quickly adding, deleting,
- extracting, and viewing members of a ZIP file. The program is easy to
- install, and extensive online help is always available. All options
- (including screen size and position) can be saved and restored.
-
- The main WinZip window includes a list of files in the open ZIP file.
- This list can be scrolled and sorted by name, extension, date, or size.
- Files can be added, deleted, extracted, or viewed using pull-down menu
- entries and push buttons. The window used to view files in a Zip file
- can be sized and scrolled.
-
- WinZip supports the CUA "object-action process sequence" philosophy.
- This allows you to select objects (for example, files you want to
- extract or view) and then specify the action you want to perform.
- Alternately, you can use WinZip in a more traditional "action-object"
- style of interaction.
-
- To start WinZip from the Program Manager, double click on the WinZip
- icon. To open an existing ZIP file from the File Manager, simply double
- click on the ZIP file.
-
- WinZip requires the Shareware PKZIP/PKUNZIP product from PKWARE, Inc.
- It runs PKZIP and PKUNZIP in the background in Windows Enhanced
- (80386) mode, or as full-screen applications in Standard and Real modes.
-
- This program is produced by a member of the Association of Shareware
- Professionals (ASP). ASP wants to make sure that the shareware
- principle works for you. If you are unable to resolve a
- shareware-related problem with an ASP member by contacting the member
- directly, ASP may be able to help. The ASP Ombudsman can help you
- resolve a dispute or problem with an ASP member, but does not provide
- technical support for members' products. Please write to the ASP
- Ombudsman at P.O. Box 545 Grover Road, Muskegon, MI 49442 or send a
- Compuserve message via easyplex to ASP Ombudsman 70007,3536.

- * PMZIP - An OS/2 Version of WinZip
-
- PMZIP(TM) is an OS/2 Presentation Manager version of WinZip. However,
- PMZIP makes use of some OS/2 features not available under Windows,
- including threads for faster execution, and support for the File Manager
- drag and drop facility. It also features a file search facility to
- locate selected ZIP files anywhere on a disk.
-
- PMZIP has been available as Shareware since January, 1991 for the same
- price as WinZip. Orders for WinZip placed in 1991 will include a free
- registered copy of PMZIP version 1.0. Similarly, orders for PMZIP
- placed in 1991 will include a free registered version of WinZip.
-
- The shareware version of PMZIP can be downloaded from the IBMSYS forum
- on CompuServe, the IBM.OS2 conference on BIX, and many OS/2 bulletin
- board systems.
