42DESCRIPTION
43       zipcloak encrypts all unencrypted entries in the zipfile.  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.

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.)

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.
