There is a way to zip files or even folders without an external. I did this by shelling another zipping utility. To be even more sly about it, the zipping executable is "embedded" in the stack in a custom property.
It's on RevOnline. User Name: Benjam Program: Windows ZipFolder This program only works for windows. Also, it hasn't been tested that well. If it doesn't work please e-mail me at [EMAIL PROTECTED]<mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>. -Ben P.S. Is it true that you can read from the standard input and output from a exe? Is this the same <iostream> that c++ uses? _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
