15.4 zip

+ +

Finally, there are two utilities that can be used on zip files. These are very common +in the Windows world, so Linux has programs to deal with them. The compression program is +called zip(1), and the decompression program is called unzip(1).

+ + + + + +
+
+% zip foo *
+
+
+ +

This will create the file foo.zip, which will contain all +the files in the current directory. zip will add the .zip extension automatically, so there's no need to include that in +the file name. You can also recurse through the current directory, zipping up any +directories that are also laying around:

+ + + + + +
+
+% zip -r foo *
+
+
+ +

Decompressing files is easy, as well.

+ + + + + +
+
+% unzip foo.zip
+
+
+ +

This will extract all the files in the file foo.zip, +including any directories in the archive.

+ +

The zip utilities have several advanced options for creating +self-extracting archives, leaving out files, controlling compressed file size, printing +out what will happen, and much more. See the man pages for zip +and unzip to find out how to use these options.
