Zip files...

[beakie]

...does anyone have any documentation on how the file formats work?

I intend to write them, not read them... so I am hoping there might be some really basic version I could create.

I do not want to use a library regardless of how easy it is, thanks :)

Have you looked at the 7-zip source?

Wow!

Hahaha I knew SOMEONE wouldn't be able to resist :)

Thanks, but I intend to write my own :)

It's all good.

Just found what I was looking for...

That's just a heavily trimmed version of APPNOTE, the format's specification.

Thanks for the link...

I actually only want to create zip files with no compression (its for the arduino) so the spec i had was sufficient.

Cheers anyways
