bldzip
this program takes the file(s) specified in the filespec list and
builds one or more zip files named
each resulting zip file will fit on a floppy disk.
BLDZIP is not meant to be the answer to all your problems; it was written
to be the answer to mine. However, feel free to reap whatever benefits
you can! My problem was this: We distribute software for internal
consumption. One system, consisting of over 120 .EXE files, has to be
distributed to 150 sites. I needed to pack those files onto the minimum
number of floppies for shipment.
BLDZIP parameters:
may be no longer than 7 characters. The resulting files
will be
than 26 resulting .ZIP files, you're SOL.
.ZIPs
For example:
BLDZIP 1200 GL *.exe *.hlp *.frm

Very nice! Thank you for this wonderful archive. I wonder why I found it only now. Long live the BBS file archives!
This is so awesome! 😀 I’d be cool if you could download an entire archive of this at once, though.
But one thing that puzzles me is the “mtswslnkmcjklsdlsbdmMICROSOFT” string. There is an article about it here. It is definitely worth a read: http://www.os2museum.com/wp/mtswslnk/
