Create a Zip archive instead man zip for more information
-e Encrypt the contents of the zip archive using a
password which
is entered on the terminal in response to a
prompt (this will
not be echoed; if standard error is not a tty,
zip will exit
with an error). The password prompt is repeated
to save the
user from typing errors.

Thanks Rodrick!
Yeah, I saw this after I mailed the group. It's probably
the way I will end up going, but I sure would like to have a Perl
solution instead.
If I use /usr/bin/zip, I'll still have to shell out.
OTOH, I need to wrap this up...
Thanks for your reply.
