The Files->Zip menu item will activate a Zip Files dialog from which you may zip the selected files to an archive file. The default target directory may be set in the Settings notebook (See Zip Options). The Zip Files dialog enables the user to easily modify the target directory for the zip file by clicking in the full target path. To zip the file into the directory of either file window, simply click anywhere in the window to set that windows path into the target field. The user also may manually enter the full target path for the file.
A default target file name of 'noname00' is provided but you should edit the target zip file name. A '.zip' extension is not required in the target filename.
Zip option switches may also be set from the dialog by pushing the Options pushbutton in the lower left corner of the dialog. The options entry field may also be manually edited without using the Options pushbutton if you know the options desired.
