Dieter Baron2188f102005-06-09 20:37:41 +00001 This is libzip, a C library for reading, creating, and modifying zip
2archives. Files can be added from data buffers, files, or compressed
3data copied directly from other zip archives. Changes made without
4closing the archive can be reverted. The API is documented by man
5pages.
