Re.'Compressing folders in Windows using Python'

[Tim N. van der Leeuw]

Isn't it much easier to figure out how python built-in module 'zipfile'
works?

Pseudo-code would be something like:

#UNTESTED
import zipfile
import os
import os.path

zf = zipfile.ZipFile('myzipfilename.zip', 'w', zipfile.ZIP_DEFLATED)
for root, dirs, files in os.walk('compressthisdir'):
    for f in riles:
        fullname = os.join(root, f)
        zf.write(fullname)
zf.close()


Cheers,
