Dear zip maintainer, hi Charles ;-),
I foung a small problem in the zip program.
$ cygcheck -c zip
Cygwin Package Information
Package Version
zip 2.3-2
When you try:
$ zip -j ziptest c:/cygwin/cygwin.bat
you get:
$ unzip -l ziptest.zip
Archive: ziptest.zip
Length Date Time Name
-------- ---- ---- ----
55 02-26-02 11:08 cygwin.bat
-------- -------
But
$ zip -j ziptest2.zip c:\\cygwin\\cygwin.bat
leads to:
$ unzip -l ziptest2.zip
Archive: ziptest2.zip
Length Date Time Name
-------- ---- ---- ----
55 02-26-02 11:08 c:\cygwin\cygwin.bat
-------- -------
The -j option doesn't strip the directories when you use backslashes.
The native W32 zip from InfoZip works correctly with both directory
separators.
Thanks
Volker
