Create Windows-compatible zip files via AppleScript
Authored by: Onirix on Sep 08, '05 11:14:33PM

I will have to say that I revert back to using Stuffit Delux. I use the Archive as zip option when right clicking and using the stuffit contextual menu. It makes zip files with only the .ds_store files. No directory garbage. Kind of ironic that my main use for Stuffit Delux is to zip files.

A shame to. It seems so simple to fix it in OsX. We can open windows zipped files. Why not just have the built-in archive feature zip as windows zip files all the time? I must be missing something.

Anyway, luckily I have stuffit, and patient windows friends.
