Personally, I would use an NSTask with 'zip.' It's a command line
utility and is easy to figure out. Just read the manual page (man zip)
for usage info.
Good luck, Alan

I am wanting to implement in my app the ability to create
standard .zip archives. I have looked through the list archives and
read various things on the internet, but I'm rather confused :(
Thus far my research has uncovered to me:
zlib - pre-installed with OS X. Does not support .zip archives, but
there is add-on code to do it.
gzip - Also doesn't support .zip archives
info-zip - As far as I can tell, this is an open source command line
tool, rather than a library I can use.
So, what would people recommend for Cocoa use? Should I use NSTask
to have a command line tool handle the thing for me? Or should I use
a library like zlib? Or is there something better that I've missed
altogether!?
Mike.
