RE: CFX_ZIP on Linux?
It is easier than you think Michel. The unix philosophy is using many small programs to achieve the effect of much larger ones ;) So.. if you wanted to create a zip file with max compression zip -9 foo.zip file1.txt file2.txt file3.txt Voila you now have foo.zip Just drop down to the good ole command line using a CFEXECUTE or some such and there you go.

We're migrating a CF application from NT to Linux. One of the things it does is allow the user to tag a number of files which it then packs in one zip file for him to download. This is done with Ben Forta's cfx_zip. Is there any way at all to duplicate this functionality easily on Linux? In other words: is there a Linux equivalent, or do I need to do stuff with cfexecute?

Re: [CFX_ZIP on Linux?]
yes. write a shell script to gzip the tagged files Michel Vuijlsteke [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: We're migrating a CF application from NT to Linux.

RE: [CFX_ZIP on Linux?]
Not gzip. Use the command line utility "zip" Gzip uses a different compression algorithm. Granted winzip speaks gzip its still better to use the zip command line utility there is a huge difference in "zip" and "gzip" Gzip needs something like tar to create an archive of files. Zip like I showed allows you to create a valid archive that is just like a PKZIP archive. try this out at your nearest unix command line.. "man zip" and "man gzip" :) Jeremy Allen elliptIQ Inc. -Original Message- From: Alex [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, February 20, 2001 9:41 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: [CFX_ZIP on Linux?] yes. write a shell script to gzip the tagged files Michel Vuijlsteke [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: We're migrating a CF application from NT to Linux.

A java version should be very easy, there is a java/zip example tag supplied with CF Justin -Original Message- From: Michel Vuijlsteke [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, February 20, 2001 3:05 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: CFX_ZIP on Linux?
