Is there a zip utility for unix? when I say zip utility, i mean windows zip format, not gzip. I had a look at gnu and couldn't see anything, but I could have missed it.

I need it because my site has an archive section where people can download all the old stuff. My users dont want it in tar.gz format, and I dont want to have to zip it all on my PC and upload it.

Thanks for any help.

Well, I think there is unzip ability on *nix. But I don't think Zipping ability is on *nix.

P.S I may be wrong.

Thanks. I managed to find one. it a unix version of pkzip. I should have thought of that.

On most installations, just use 'zip' -- and it will be pkzip-compatible.

not my installation :(

Now does anyone know of a batch file renaming script or program?
