**** The ZIP TERMINUS was designed to be run on a stand alone PC. ****
BACKGROUND INFORMATION:
This program was designed to be an intelligent front end
for PKWARE's PKZIP(tm) V1.1X compression/archive utility.
One of the main objectives in writing this program was to reduce
the amount of user input required each time a file is ZIPPED
or UNZIPPED. The ZIP TERMINUS specializes in 'FLAT ARCHIVES'.
This program in no way attempts to facilitate EVERY archive
convention offered by PKZIP(tm). Instead, it offers a modest
selection of power options that will be of help to the beginner
or intermediate user in their daily telecommunication and archive
activities.
