zipping during installation?
hey,
i know that there is plugin zipdll for unzipping from zip file during installation, but is tere aslo a plugin/program for zipping?

well, i have used WinZip Command Line Support Add-On, which does all that, but it has some maior disadvantages:
-it requires WinZip 8.0 or higher
-and itself
so if someone wants to use my program, he also needs to install and register winzip 8.0 or higher, and afther that WinZip Command Line Support Add-On. So that isn't exactly what i'm looking for.

so i'm looking for solution for zipping like unzipping with zipdll

I use 7za to compress Zips, but you should just search the web for a command-line Zip-only program that is less size (7za supports a load of compression methods that I didn't need, so it was larger than a Zip-only program.)
