NAME
     minizip - create ZIP archives

SYNOPSIS
     minizip [-o] zipfile [ " files" ... ]

DESCRIPTION
     minizip  is  a  simple  tool  which  allows the creation of compressed file
     archives in the ZIP format used by the MS-DOS utility PKZIP.  It was  writ-
     ten  as  a  demonstration of the zlib(3) library and therefore lack many of
     the features of the zip(1) program.

OPTIONS
     The first argument supplied is the name of the ZIP archive to create or  -o
     in  which case it is ignored and the second argument treated as the name of
     the ZIP file.  If the ZIP file already exists it will be overwritten.

     Subsequent arguments specify a list of files to place in the  ZIP	archive.
     If none are specified then an empty archive will be created.

SEE ALSO
     miniunzip(1), zlib(3), zip(1).
