Contents of the "windll" sub-archive for Zip 2.2 and later:

  contents       this file
  windll16.def   definition file for 16-bit Zip DLL
  windll32.def   definition file for 32-bit Zip DLL
  windll.c       Contains the entry point for the DLL, "fake" printing,
                 and password functions.
  windll.h       header file for both 16 and 32-bit DLLs.
  zipver.h       versioning information for resource file, and also
                 used by WiZ application itself.
  windll.rc      resource file for both 16 and 32-bit DLLs
  windll.txt     simplistic explanation of how to use DLL.
  structs.h      header file used by both the dll and by WiZ which defines
                 several structures passed to the dll.
  example.c      a very simplistic example of how to load the dll, and make
                 a call into it.
  example.h      header file for example.c

  borland\dll <dir> contains 16 and 32 bit make files for the zip dlls.
  borland\lib <dir> contains 32 bit make files for the zip32 static library
  visualc\dll <dir> contains Visual C++ 5.0 project and make files for
                    zip32 dll.
  visualc\lib <dir> contains Visual C++ 5.0 project and make files for
                    zip32 static library.

The Microsoft C port has not been tested as completely as the Borland port.
Note that Borland C++ 5.0 is full of bugs version 4.5 is recommended instead.
If you must use Borland C++ 5.0, using the Intel optimizing compiler is
required to avoid crashes (possibly due to a bug in the stat() function
in the normal Borland compiler.) This does have the advantage of giving you
a smaller code size than the 4.52 compiler.

Borland C++ 5.01 has resolved many of the problems seen with 5.0, and
can now reliably be used.

Note that I have been singularly unsuccessful in getting this to compile
and run under MSVC 1.52c.
