OK all you brains out there. See if you can answer
this one. How can I
make PKZIP include ALL the files on a disk INCLUDING those in sub
directories and the sub directories themselves.
Well I've been trying to get either one to work
for the last hour and I
haven't had any luck. -$a: ties to create a .ZIP file by the name of
-&sa: but that's illegal so it errors out. -rp, -rP, -Pr and -pr all do
that same thing.
Use the right format for the pkzip command. See below.
It copies all the files including those in the
subdirectories but when
you use PKUNZIP all the files are placed in one directory therefore
losing the directory structure and overwritng any files that have same
names but that came from different subdirectories.
Use the -d option to pkunzip.
I've tried this with MS DOS PKZIP verion 2.04g and
with Winzip but I got
the same results with both.
