Poor man's Winzip

[Dirk Krause]

Hi,

I put up some code on 
http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Cookbook/Python/Recipe/104733


This program does the three essential tasks that (at least) I need:
1. Unzip an archive to a folder
2. Zip a folder to an archive
3. Zip a (big) file to an archive

For convenient usage, get Gordon McMillan's Installer Package, and
freeze this application with
> python freeze.py zip2folder.py
After that, you will have a self containing EXE that will work even
without having python installed.
Drop this thing into the 'sendto' folder, and you have a very
convenient way to use this program
via right mouseclick/sendto zip2folder.


(I fiddled with the registry until I found a link giving the
extraordinairy simple an undangerous 'sendto' solution).

Regards,
  Dirk
