Could you explain this please? I use pkzip25 in a DOS window on
w2k and XP. It announces itself
PKZIP(R) Version 2.50 FAST! Compression Utility for Windows 95/NT 4-15-1998
Copyright 1989-1998 PKWARE Inc. All Rights Reserved. Shareware Version
and has no problems with long file names. It is a single program with
-add and -extract parameters, rather than a pkzip and separate pkunzip.
(Except for long file names, it's a step down from their capabilities.)
Is there a different program pair also with version number 2.50?
