3KNOWN BUGS
4
5- None! (as of zip 2.21)
6
7- building on x86 BeOS generates a hell of a lot of bugs; I'm not going to

10FEATURES
11
12- stores BeOS file attributes, compressing them if possible (as of 2.21,
13 this works properly for symbolic links, too; as of 2.3, this works
14 properly for symbolic links whether you're storing them as links or not)
15
16- zip files are created with the correct file type (application/zip)
17
18- supports both Metrowerks CodeWarrior (PowerPC platform) and GNU C
19 (x86 platform), automatically picking the default compiler for each
20 architecture
