Everything about ZipIt
Mac OS data compression program
ZipIt is a shareware data compression utility for archiving and compressing files on the Classic Mac OS and Mac OS X platforms. It was designed to be highly compatible with PKZIP on MS-DOS machines, reading and writing those files as well as performing any necessary line ending conversion or MacBinary encoding to ensure the files were usable on both platforms. It had an advanced user interface and offered a number of automation features, including AppleScript support. First released in 1993, the latest version of ZipIt is version 2.2.2, released in late 2002. Wikipedia →
