.SH "DESCRIPTION" | |
The function | |
\fBzip_source_file\fR() | |
creates a zip source from a file. | |
\fBzip_source_file\fR() | |
opens | |
\fIfname\fR | |
and reads | |
\fIlen\fR | |
bytes from offset | |
\fIstart\fR | |
from it. | |
If | |
\fIlen\fR | |
is 0 or \-1, the whole file (starting from | |
\fIstart\fR) | |
is used. | |
.PP | |
The fie is opened and read when the data from the source is used, usually by | |
\fBzip_close\fR(). | |
.SH "RETURN VALUES" | |

\fIarchive\fR | |
is set to indicate the error. | |
