NAME ZIPINFO - display information on zip files SYNOPSIS CHAIN "zipinfo file" or *zipinfo file DESCRIPTION zipinfo lists the contents of a ZIP archive displaying all the file infomation for each entry, including the contents of the extras fields, where various Zip packages store system-specific information. ARGUMENTS file Path of the ZIP archive. If the file specification is a wildcard, only the first matching file is processed. DETAILED DESCRIPTION The behavior of zipinfo is to list files in the following format: Name Sys Ver Flag Type ModTime ModDate CRC CompSize FileSize UnZip FAT 0.0 0000 0000 12:23:16 04/11/1999 5F9BAC00 00001204 00001204 WR/r FFFF69CE FFFF7B00 04/11/1999 00:00:00 12/08/1998 0046 (0046) Zip FAT 0.0 0000 0000 15:35:02 01/01/2000 0B8F0B10 00001CAD 00001CAD WR/r FFFF5F25 FFFF7B00 01/01/2000 00:00:00 18/09/1997 0046 (0046) The information fields are displayed in the order they occur within the archive. The first field is the filename. Characters in the filename are swapped to convert to a local Acorn filename. If the file was zipped with a stored directory name, that is also displayed as part of the filename. The second field is the file system the ZIP archive was created on. Most archives are created with this field set to 'FAT' regardless of the actual system used. The third field is the ZIP version required to extract files from the archive. The fourth field is the general purpose flags. The fifth field is the compression type the entry is stored with. The most common compression types are &0000 - no compression, and &0008 - deflated. The sixth and seventh fields are the modification time and date of the entry, and the eighth field is the CRC of the entry. The ninth field is the compressed file size, the amount of space the entry takes within the archive. The tenth field is the actual file size, the amount of space the entry takes when extracted. There then follows on any additional lines the extra information for the entry. If the extras field contains Acorn metadata then it is displayed in Acorn format. The fields displayed, if present, are: the access string, load address, execution address, modification date in the attributes field, creation time, creation date, main account, auxilary account. If the extra field does not contain Acorn metadata then it is shown as the size of the extras field followed by a simple list of 32-bit words.
