The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.
In looking up info on this, I just learned that apparently IBM have
provided APIs for zipping and unzipping archives - QZipZip and QZipUnzip
- this came out in 7.1 - there's a service program, QZIPUTIL, that has
these procedures. The open source zlib library is used in these utilities.

There are options to tailor how the compression is done in tools other
than jar - jar doesn't give you many options - we use it, as it is
really easy and available, but I'll start using these new utilities,
methinks.

For one-off situations, JAR. For most other purposes, UZAEMON's port of ZLib and MiniZip/MiniUnzip usually does it. The one time it didn't, the one that comes with MMAIL solved the problem.
