This is the 44 default action. 45 46 The -d option is used to decrypt encrypted entries in the zipfile. 47 48 zipcloak uses original zip encryption which is considered weak. 49 50 Note: The encryption code of this program is not copyrighted and is 51 put in the public domain. It was originally written in Europe 52 and can be freely distributed from any country including the 53 U.S.A. (Previously if this program was imported into the U.S.A, 54 it could not be re-exported from the U.S.A to another country.) 55 See the file README.CR included in the source distribution for 56 more on this. Otherwise, the Info-ZIP license applies. 57 58EXAMPLES 59 To be added. 60 61BUGS 62 Large files (> 2 GB) and large archives not yet supported. 63 64 Split archives not yet supported. A work around is to convert the 65 split archive to a single-file archive using zip and then use zipcloak 66 on the single-file archive. If needed, the resulting archive can then 67 be split again using zip. 68 69SEE ALSO 70 zip(1), unzip(1) 71 72AUTHOR 73 Info-ZIP 74 75 v3.0 of 8 May 2008 zipcloak(1) 76
