Transferring A File to zip with Mac

<< < (2/4) > >>

I'm trying to upload something to sites that will only take it in zip format. I downloaded gzip i think. It gave me a folder full of different files but no program. How am I supposed to get the program (sorry, I'm used to programs that download, uncompress, and are ready to use automatically). Did I even download the right thing?

mobrien_12:
Did you try the infozip ftp site directly?  I just downloaded the source myself to check.

ftp://ftp.uu.net/pub/archiving/zip/src/

Unix source and maczip program are in there.

Pissed_Macman:
Okay, I downloaded Maczip but once again I have a folder full of weird-ass files and stuff. How do I start installing it??

I haven't used maczip, just the unix/linux, windows and dos versions.  All of those just required you to put them in a folder and run them.  No install needed.

Ugg, but what exactly do I open to run these files? Compressing something to a zip can't be this complicated!  :mad:
