The ZIP plugin adds support for ZIP archives. You can pack files and directories into ZIP archives; browse, test, and unpack ZIP archives; delete files and directories from ZIP archives; create self-extracting ZIP archives (in several language versions); create multi-volume (spanned) ZIP archives (which can also be self-extracting, even on fixed disks); and view or edit ZIP archive comments. Files in ZIP archives (including self-extracting archives) can be encrypted.
See the Archiver and Menu Extension sections in Using Plugins for a description of basic operations with the plugin archiver and menu extension.
