.Zip files

What is a good Amiga program for .Zip files.

I am using unzip from aminet, but that doesnt create the directories correctly. :-?

Hmmm... sound wired about the dir thing.. It works fine here...

But a good (though commercial) program is the XADmaster package.. the newest version supports many formats Zip inculded... And with the Voodoo-X GUI for it you'll be smoking :)... Couldn't find it on aminet but try google for more info...

-edit-
renamed XPK to XAD, I always mix those two up...

I think you mean xadmaster.  xpkmaster (de)compresses individual files in it's own format.  xfdmaster decompresses individual files (including xpk packed files).  xadmaster (de)compresses archives (though I've not actually used it, preferring to use the proper archiver executables)

Download here: http://www.aminet.net/aminet.cgi?string=xadmaster

That is maybe why I couldn't find it on Aminet...

Stupid me..

Thanks ;-)

Yeah, xad master is what I ment...
So if you replace XPK with XAD my post should work out okay after all...

I use zip and unzip from InfoZip with no problems.
Time to move on.  Bye Amiga.org.  :(
