Hi Listers,

Been playing with zip / unzip on the 3K and it looks like it doesn't put
back the files as it found it.

:listf xcpu@,2
ACCOUNT=  SYS         GROUP=  MANAGER

FILENAME  CODE  ------------LOGICAL RECORD-----------  ----SPACE----
                  SIZE  TYP        EOF      LIMIT R/B  SECTORS #X MX

XCPUCHNG           80B  FA         318        324  16      112  1  2

:zip.hpbin.sys;info="CPUZIP XCPUCHNG"
  adding: JCPUCHNG (deflated 71%)
:purge xcpuchng
:unzip.hpbin.sys;info="CPUZIP"

:listf xcpu@,2

                  SIZE  TYP        EOF      LIMIT R/B  SECTORS #X MX

:

As you can see the size and type has changed although the file is still
readable. Is there a way to use zip / unzip and keep the same file info ?

The versions that I have are :

:zip.hpbin.sys
Copyright (C) 1990-1996 Mark Adler, Richard B. Wales, Jean-loup Gailly
Onno van der Linden and Kai Uwe Rommel. Type 'zip -L' for the software
License.
Zip 2.1 (April 27th 1996). Usage:
:unzip.hpbin.sys
UnZip 5.31 of 31 May 1997, by Info-ZIP.  Maintained by Greg Roelofs.  Send
bug reports to the authors at [log in to unmask]; see README for
details.

TIA,

Nige...
