Will it process character special files, e.g. /dev/fd/0?

The "jar" command is really just a special launcher that runs some
Java code that uses the java.util.zip package,
so it would be zAAP enabled. The native library used by java.util.zip
is zAAP enabled.
Using "jar" requires that the file be first stored in an HFS file,
since jar can only process fi

John, when you zip a file using the jar command, do you see any zAAP
eligible workload? Just curious. Although the jar command is part of the
Java runtime, I'm not sure whether jar sends anything to the zAAP.

A few freewares.
A couple of years ago, I ran a project to replace PKZIP with ZIP/390.
There are many products out there, ZIP/390 was the only 'work-alike'.
Out of 9,000 ZIP jobs we only had to change 5 that were using more

PKZIP for MVS
PKZIP for Z/OS

1.- OPUT, OGET, OCOPY or ISHELL to copying your DSN file to USS/Linux
2.- tar, pax, cpio ... your DSN file
3.- OPUT, OGET, OCOPY or ISHELL to MVS or FTP

Oh, I might mention that you can create a ZIP with multiple members
simply by having multiple fromdsn commands before the jar command and
then listing them on the jar command line.

I'm never one to do things the easy way when I can do it the complicated
way . Anyway, below is a way to create a ZIP file containing a
SINGLE z/OS sequential file. It uses Dovetailed Technologies DTLSPAWN,
fromdsn, todsn, and the Java jar command. It must use a z/OS UNIX file
as intermediary stora
