| This is libzip, a C library for reading, creating, and modifying |
| zip and zip64 archives. Files can be added from data buffers, files, |
| or compressed data copied directly from other zip archives. Changes |
| made without closing the archive can be reverted. Decryption and |
| encryption of Winzip AES and legacy PKware encrypted files is |
| supported. The API is documented by man pages. |
| |
| libzip is fully documented via man pages. HTML versions of the man |
| pages are on [libzip.org](https://libzip.org/documentation/) and |
| in the [man](man) directory. You can start with |
| [libzip(3)](https://libzip.org/documentation/libzip.html), which |
| lists |
| all others. Example source code is in the [examples](examples) and |
| [src](src) subdirectories. |
| |
| If you have developed an application using libzip, you can find out |
| about API changes and how to adapt your code for them in the included |
| file [API-CHANGES.md](API-CHANGES.md). |
| |
| See the [INSTALL.md](INSTALL.md) file for installation instructions and |
| dependencies. |
