Pkunzip would automatically prompt you to insert disk 2, etc for spanned
disks. I believe a workaround was copying the files to a local directory
and combining them (in dos copy zip1.zip+zip2.zip full.zip). Not sure how
current archive products react to spanned disks or if it was standardized.

I vaguely remember this feature of PKZIP. It's called disk spanning.

Some of the floppies I’m recovering data look to
be either a multi-part
ZIP file, or something. Was this a separate product from PKZIP? Part
of the problem is every file has the same
