InfoZip’s WIZ is a graphical front end for Zip and UnZip. Its primary author is Mike White. WiZ currently runs only under Windows 95/98/ME/NT/2000. Zip is useful for packaging a set of files for distribution, for archiving files, and for saving disk space by temporarily compressing unused files or directories. Zip puts one or more compressed files into a single ZIP archive, along with information about the files (name, path, date, time of last modification, protection, and check information to verify file integrity). An entire directory structure can be packed into a ZIP archive with a single command. UnZip will list, test, or extract files from a .zip archive, commonly found on MS-DOS systems. The default behavior (with no options) is to extract into the current directory (and subdirectories below it) all files from the specified zip file. As with all of Info-ZIP’s software, WiZ is completely free and available as source code, too.
