My question that I have is about zipping files. I want to make a program that will zip a text file. I have read some things on it and I think that there is a zip module for perl. But I also read that you can use winzip to get this done through your code. I am working on windows 2000. I was wondering which one would be better to use and would do a better job or compressing the files. Also how about unzipping files also? If any one has some experience with this and knows a good way of getting this done your help would be greatly appreciated. any examples would be great
