<code class="Nm">zipmerge</code> merges the source zip archives

<code class="Nm">zipmerge</code> uses one open file descriptor per zip archive.
If you need to merge a lot of zip archives, check your shell's file descriptor
ulimit and either increase it or run <code class="Nm">zipmerge</code> multiple
times with e.g. 1000 source zip archives each time.
