A good cmd-line based w32 zipper? (freeware)
Basically, what the title says. I went to zip up the latest build of WinZETH and the sources, when I realized that PKZIP(which works under Win2k surprisingly enough), converts all the files to uppercase.. and I know Linux/Unix won't like that.
The quicker the (valid) reply, the quicker the next ZETH build gets out. ;)

But the source code can compile as-is on other platforms.. specificly Unix/Linux(hopefully), where case does matter a great deal. Makefile, MakeFile, MAKEFILE, and makefile are all considered different files there.Hirogen2 wrote:Why care? I think WinZETH is specific to Windows, where case doesnot matter?
Nope.. Win2k. XP won't work on my machine: 233MHz, 128MB RAMMLdB wrote:Suppose you don't have WinXP

Yup. 2.04gGooberMan wrote:Heh, is that the old DOS PKZip?
It does, but WinZip is Nagware, and too bloated for my needs. I already have a couple Zip utilities(WinAce and 7Zip), I just need one that works from the command line like PKZip.GooberMan wrote:I'm not sure of any command line zip utilities, but I'm pretty sure WinZip keeps case.

Command-line ZIPper
Actually, PKWare does offer a command-line Win32 version of PKZIP that supports all the features of the windowed version. It _was_ freeware a couple of years ago, but I recently checked and they want money for it now. For those that like the command prompt (like me) it is THE way to go.
Perhaps you could find it by doing a search for PKZIP 2.50

ok, I don't really know anything about this but, couldn't you just make the zip and then rename all the files to lowercase? Or does that defeat the whole point of zipping from the command line???
sorry, I really don't know what I'm talking about, I just thought it would only take 10 seconds to rename all the files to lowercase, but maybe that's the 10 seconds you're trying to cut out... ?

I've never used this, but it looks good/free/commandline:

I use both Info-ZIP's zip utility and Ken Silverman's kzip.

Why limit yourself to just zip? Why have 500 programs to open compressed filetypes when you can have just this one? It's pretty powerful too. 5 stars out of 5

You? As for ZDoom, you're doing CABs not ZIPs.randy wrote:I use both Info-ZIP's zip utility and Ken Silverman's kzip.
