You might use way long names incorporating Order number, OS release,
Shelf name, ..., and rely on file manager's filtering by name.
On Linux, I see:
-bash 3+ man zip
ZIP(1)
...
--symlinks
For UNIX and VMS (V8.3 and later), store symbolic links as such
in the
zip archive, instead of compressing and storing the file referred
to by
the link. This can avoid multiple copies of files being
included in
the archive as zip recurses the directory trees and accesses
files
directly and by links.
... I have no idea what happens if a filesystem so stored is unzipped on a
system
not supporting symlinks. Will it use Windows' "mklink"? Shortcuts?
