Yes, I read COM could do zipping and unzipping but not quite simple. 

My particular requirement at this time is to be able to create and add files to a zip file, but I'm sure your example will be useful to other interested people.  Good code examples help everyone 👍

Extracting the contents of a zip file with COM \ Component Object Modeling is possible. Later, I can post an example.

Hi.  Then how do you compile and test new versions of your code?  Would it not be convenient if you could easily switch from C11 to C17 to C?? for all 169 projects as you develop and test new versions?

I am *very* appreciative of your efforts and do not wish to be seen as argumentive so I'll leave this suggestion alone. Many thanks.

Looks like it might be a DPI issue.  On my laptop it is ok -
1920 x 1080 scale 125%

Looks like there is a possible path using ZLib which might make it easier.
ZLib has a miniz like version minizip

So I might be able to implement, or at least try -

Two links:
Base -
https://www.winimage.com/zLibDll/minizip.html

This seems A good helper set of functions, similar to miniz -

Feature requests / Enhanced snippets suggestion

Last post by ander_cc - April 27, 2026, 03:38:57 AM

Hello, Pelles.
If I want to use "Surround by" and "Comment" and "No comment", I should select a line first.
Could you add a "auto select current line" feature?
Could you add some shortcuts for "Surround by" and "Comment" and "No comment" ?

I want to use $0 twice or more. Could you add it?
Sincerely yours,
Ander

Using zlib does not look easy. Anyone who tried the latest version?

Have you ever looked at this?
https://zlib.net/

My main interest is in the compression/decompression part, which has worked well for me since the 1990s, but I think there is some attempt somewhere in this package to handle ZIP files...

I'm not sure this will solve anything, but if you are stuck ...
