+HOW TO INSTALL ZIP
+
+ Zip is distributed as C source code that can be compiled on a
+ wide range of systems: Unix, VMS, MSDOS, OS/2, NT, Amiga, Atari,
+ BeOS, VM/CMS, ... You will need Unzip 5.0p1 (under any system) or
+ PKUNZIP 2.04g or later (under MSDOS) to unpack the distribution
+ file, zip231.zip. But since you read this, you have unpacked it
+ already, or you cheated and got a tar.Z file...
+
+Installation on Unix
+
+ Let's assume that you start from scratch and have not yet
+ unpacked the sources. First, unpack the source as follows,
+ assuming that you have zip231.zip in the current directory.
+
+ mkdir zipsrc
+ cd zipsrc
+ unzip ../zip231
+
+ This extracts all source files and documentation in the
+ directory called "zipsrc". This release now includes the standard
+ encryption code previously in the separate package zcrypt29.zip,
+ but you still can decide wether to activate the crypt code or not.
+ Crypt is enabled by default, but you may disable it by specifying
+ the option -DNO_CRYPT in the LOCAL_ZIP environment variable (or by
+ adding this option to the compilation options in the appropiate
+ makefile).
+ See Readme.cr for more on crypt.
+
+ You then do:
+
+ make -f unix/Makefile system
+
+ where "system" is one of: generic, generic_gcc,
+ att6300, coherent, cray_v3, minix, sco_x286, xenix, zilog.
+
+ Try "make -f unix/Makefile generic" first, this works on many systems.
+ If this fails, then use one of the special targets given above.
+
+ Among other special systems are Cray Unicos, Zilog Zeus and MINIX.
+
+ If you get error messages "constant expected" in deflate.c, add
+ -DDYN_ALLOC to CFLAGS in your makefile entry.
+
+ If you have lots of memory, try compiling with -DBIG_MEM. If your
+ system supports mmap(), try compiling with -DMMAP. This generally
+ gives faster compression but uses more memory. See the unix/Makefile
+ entry mmap_gcc for an example.
+
+ If none of these compiles, links, and functions properly on
+ your Unix system, see the file README for how to get help.
+
+ If the appropriate system was selected, then the executables
+ zip, zipnote and zipsplit will be created. You can copy them
+ to an appropriate directory in the search path using:
+
+ make -f unix/Makefile install
+
+ The defaults are /usr/local/bin for the executables and
+ /usr/local/man/man1 for the manual page. Change the macros
+ BINDIR and MANDIR in makefile if appropriate.
+
+ You can use the command "set" to see the current search
+ path. If you are using the C-Shell (csh), enter the com-
+ mand:
+
+ rehash
+
+ so csh can find the new command in the path. You are now
+ ready to use Zip.
+
+ You can get rid of the now unnecessary source and object
+ files with:
+
+ cd ..
+ rm -r zipsrc
+
+ This will remove the directory zip and its contents created
+ by unzip. You should keep the zip231.zip file around though,
+ in case you need to build it again or want to give it to a
+ colleague.
+
+ You can add the following lines to the file /etc/magic for
+ usage by the 'file' command:
+
+0 string PK Zip archive
+>4 byte 011 (at least v0.9 to extract)
+>4 byte 012 (at least v1.0 to extract)
+>4 byte 013 (at least v1.1 to extract)
+>4 byte 024 (at least v2.0 to extract)
+>4 byte 025 (at least v2.1 to extract)
+
+
+Installation on other systems
+
+ The steps for installation under VMS, MSDOS, OS/2, NT, Amiga and
+ Atari are similar to the above: first unzip the distribution
+ files into their own directory. The system dependant files are
+ stored in special subdirectories.
+
+ For all the non-unix ports which support the creation of "UT" extra
+ fields (these ports contain USE_EF_UT_TIME in the list of optional
+ features displayed with "zip -v"), the timezone environment variable TZ
+ should be set according to the local timezone in order for the -f,
+ -u and -o options to work correctly. This is not needed for the WIN32
+ and WinDLL ports, since they get the timezone information from the OS by
+ other means.
+
+ MSDOS:
+
+ Do one of:
+
+ make msdos\makefile.msc (Microsoft C 5.1)
+ nmake -f msdos\makefile.msc (Microsoft C 6.0 and newer)
+ make -fmsdos\makefile.bor -DCC_REV=1 (Borland Turbo C++ 1.0)
+ make -fmsdos\makefile.bor (Borland C++ 2.0 and newer)
+ make -fmsdos\makefile.tc (Borland Turbo C 2.0x)
+ make -f msdos/makefile.dj1 (DJGPP v1.12m4)
+ make -f msdos/makefile.dj2 (DJGPP v2.01 and newer)
+ make -f msdos/makefile.emx (gcc/emx 0.9b and newer)
+ make -f os2/makefile.os2 gccdos (gcc/emx 0.9b and newer)
+ wmake -f msdos\makefile.wat (Watcom C 11.x 16-bit)
+ wmake -f msdos\makefile.wat PM=1 (Watcom C 11.x 32-bit, PMODE/W)
+
+
+ for Microsoft, Borland C++ and Turbo C, Watcom C/C++ and the various
+ free GNU C implementations, respectively. More detailed instructions
+ can be found in the respective makefiles.
+
+
+ WIN32 (Windows NT/2K/XP/2K3 and Windows 95/98/ME):
+
+ Supported compilers are Microsoft Visual C++, Borland C++, Watcom C/C++,
+ and miscellaneous free GNU C implementations (gcc/mingw, CygWin, ...).
+ The makefiles supplied in the win32/ subdirectory contain further
+ information.
+
+
+ Windows DLL (WIN32):
+
+ Supported environments are Visual C++ (32-bit only, 5.x and newer).
+ For instructions how to build the DLLs and where find the makefiles,
+ look into windll/contents.
+
+
+ OS/2:
+
+ Type
+
+ {make} -f os2/makefile.os2
+
+ to get a list of supported targets/compiling environments.
+ (replace "{make}" with the name of your OS/2 make utility.)
+
+ To initiate the actual compiling process, you have to specify
+ a system target:
+
+ {make} -f os2/makefile.os2 {system}
+
+ An example: type
+
+ nmake -f os2/makefile.os2 msc
+
+ for Microsoft C 6.00.
+
+
+ VMS (OpenVMS):
+
+ Apply
+
+ @[.vms]make_zip
+
+ or use DEC's MMS make utility (or the MMK clone) if available:
+
+ mms /descr=[.vms]descrip.mms /macro=(__ALPHA__=1) for Alpha AXP
+ mms /descr=[.vms]descrip.mms /macro=(__DECC__=1) for DEC C on VAX
+ mms /descr=[.vms]descrip.mms /macro=(__VAXC__=1) for VAX C
+ mms /descr=[.vms]descrip.mms /macro=(__GNUC__=1) for GNU C on VAX
+
+ (If you have installed both DEC C and VAX C on your VAX and want to use
+ the latter compiler, you should define the macro "__FORCE_VAXC__"
+ instead of "__VAXC__".)
+
+ For further information please consult 00readme.txt in the vms/
+ subdirectory.
+
+For command help on any of the zip* utilities, simply enter
+the name with no arguments.
