16 | minizip - create ZIP archives |
17 | .SH SYNOPSIS |
18 | .B minizip |
19 | .RI [ -o ] |
20 | zipfile [ " files" ... ] |
21 | .SH DESCRIPTION |
22 | .B minizip |
23 | is a simple tool which allows the creation of compressed file archives |
24 | in the ZIP format used by the MS-DOS utility PKZIP. It was written as |
25 | a demonstration of the |
26 | .IR zlib (3) |
27 | library and therefore lack many of the features of the |
28 | .IR zip (1) |
29 | program. |
30 | .SH OPTIONS |
31 | The first argument supplied is the name of the ZIP archive to create or |
32 | .RI -o |
33 | in which case it is ignored and the second argument treated as the |
34 | name of the ZIP file. If the ZIP file already exists it will be |
35 | overwritten. |
36 | .PP |
37 | Subsequent arguments specify a list of files to place in the ZIP |
38 | archive. If none are specified then an empty archive will be created. |
39 | .SH SEE ALSO |
