Place the help text file (HELPARC3.TXT) is your root directory (C:\). Add the directory to your PATH in your AUTOEXEC.BAT. Remember that all items on your PATH statement MUST be on the same line. This line may be upto 256 spaces long. To do this you may use an ASCII word editor that dose not wordrap. The ASCII editor that comes with SCREEN MINDER II is a very good file editor for this type of entry. Example: PATH C:\DOS;C:\ZIPS NOTE: be sure to place a ; between PATH entries. To RUN ZIP Shell program type ZIPSHEL.EXE at the DOS prompt. .TOPIC: ZIPing Files ZIPing Files is the act of arciving or combinding files into one file. This generally includes compressing the files down so that they take less space on the disk or can be sent over the phone lines, via modem, at a faster rate. Select "ZIP Files" on the ACTION list Enter "Source Mask". This should be the drive, directory, and the filespects that you wish to have ZIPed. You may select a Drive & Directory by using the Drive Select Box in the lower left corner or select a drive by use of the Drive Select Menu above Source Mask. You may also use the Direct Entry method. Example: C:\HOLD\*.* C:\HOLD\WORK*.* If you use the Target DIR Menu to select a Target Drive, then the target file will be HOLD.ZIP by default. By placing the curser in the Dialog Box, you may edit the Default Target Name. Enter "Target Name". This should be the drive, directory, and the filename that you wish to have the ZIPed files in. Example: C:\HOLD\WORKFIL.ZIP B:\WORKFIL.ZIP Select . This will ZIP your files. NOTE: It is not required that you UnZIP only files with the .ZIP extension, however if you try to UnZIP files that were not ZIPed you will get an error.

Example: C:\HOLD\ B:\ Select . This will UnZIP your files.
