Zipfromlist with exclude?

Post by *Munango-Keewati »

Anyone know if it's possible to include file types to be excluded (-x*.zip, for instance) when using the zipfromlist command?

Thanks.

using the zipfromlist command?
Pardon ? Which command ?

Usually it is done this way:

If you open a ZIP file I can see a list of all files of this ZIP archive.

You can select desired files :
- individually INS key
- by extension with "+" key on keypad (e.g. *.exe)
- all by CTRL-+ key on keypad

You can finally unselect files by extension (e.g. *.zip) with "-" key on keypad.

The "zipfromlist" command is under-documented, but you can find it in the TC Help file if you click Search, then the Find tab and enter "zipfromlist."

While I'm asking: Can anyone tell me how to get Infozip to work with a filelist? "@filelist.lst" doesn't work, and " . -i @filelist.lst" only zip matches in the current directory--i.e., where the batch file is located.

Try to use the following command line:
c:\UTILS\ZIP\NT\zip.exe c:\backup\backup.zip -S -@ <c:\backup\backup.txt
