Description
---------------------------------------------------------------------
This program is useful to perform the long and boring job of
individually zip all files of a specified directory. It's useful for
mantaining ROMs for Emulator for example.


---------------------------------------------------------------------
Usage
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Simply specify one Source Directory an at least one Filter and click
GO! The program should work. It's suggested to use a Temporary
Destination directory and successively add the files to the directory
they should be (this for preventing that files with the same name but
different contents will be overwritten...).
Use the Compression Level wisely: 0 means no compression at all (only
storing), 9 means maximum compression (but slower perfomances).
For ROMs the best result is obiouvosly with a compression level of 9
but zipping entire CD-ROMS could be slowly (there are 650 Mb to
compress).
To stop a compression in progress click on the X button at the top
left of the window and the process will be halted.

If you want now you can import also single files with the new folder
button in the Filters box. Note that the choice is limited to the
source directory (this to permit to do wildcards and single file
searchs with a single pass...).
