That the same like for any other binary file:
[-
$escmode = 0 ;
open FH, "filename.zip" ;
binmode FH ; # only on windows
while (read(FH, $buffer, 32768))
{
print OUT $buffer ;
}
close FH;
-]
Make sure you don't have any extra spaces/newlines in the page. You could do
the same with a Apache::Reigstry script to avoid problems with extra space
in the file
