I love them. :) It really makes it much easier to manage files. One right click on a zip and I can unzip it in place, to a new old, to an old folder... sure beats typing in a command line too.

You're probably using Windows Explorer as your filemgr & in that case I'd probably agree with you. I use Total Cmdr which has builtin archiving that is much better than the Compress Folders which I agree stinks.

Some are useless, but many are very useful to the "information worker".

What is an info worker ? Again I think this is probably file mgr related as to how the info is handled.

BTW - winzip supports command lines too.

Yes it does but the point I was trying to make is that the nix utilities zip & unzip are not only free but also run from the command line. I could add they're much smaller too but these days file size doesn't seem all that important as it use to be when HD's cost $5k for a 10meggers. ;-)
