ZIP creation class
==================
This class allows you to create ZIP archives on the
fly with local files or dynamical contents.
ZLIB extensions are not necessary, so this script is
compatible with most of the hosting services !
********************************************************
Important notes
===============
Always think to the CHMOD under Linux, it's really
paining to answer those questions !
This class can be used without ZLIB extensions, but of
course archives can't be compressed, only grouped (that's
not so bad, whatever)
To create ZIP archives that can be read without ZLIB,
you must chose the lowest compressing level ("Stock"
with WinRAR) when creating the archive.
A good idea would be to try the sample script given
with the class (exemple.php).
In french (YOU translate, I always have to do)

Class functions
===============
Here is the list of functions and arguments :
Zip->get_List( [Archive ZIP])
-----------------------------
Returns an array of arrays :
+ [filename] => Extracted filename
+ [stored_filename] => Archived filename
+ [size] => Extracted file size
+ [compressed_file] => Compressed file size
+ [crc] => CRC32 of the file (HEX)
+ [mtime] => Date (Unix time)
+ [comment] => Comment, if present
+ [folder] => 0 for a file, 1 for a folder
+ [index] => Index of the file (see extract)
+ [status] => ok if the file isn't corrupted
### EXEMPLE :
> <?
> // Displays the contents of folder/archive.zip
> include("zip.lib.php");
> $zip = new Zip;
> print_r( $zip->get_List("folder/archive.zip") );
> ?>
Zip->Add( [ARR{ ARR{ $(folder/)(Name)$, $Contents$}, ... }] , [Compression] )
----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Add files/folders to an archive.
The first argument is an array.
Each element of this array is an array itself, the first element is
the (folder/)name of the extracted file and the second the contents
of this file.
If the first element is a folder name only and if there isn't contents,
the folder will be created, but empty.
Subfolders are automatically created if they don't exist in the file
name.
The second argument of the function can enable or disable the file
compression. (1=enable, 0=disable)
This must be set to 0 if the ZLIB extensiosn are disabled.
Returns an array, indexes are file names and values are add status
(1 or 0)
To use archived files, you must use get_file()
### EXEMPLE :
> <?
> // Creates archive test.zip no compressed with <t.txt> and <folder/>
> include("zip.lib.php");
> $zip = new Zip;
> $zip->Add(Array(Array("t.txt","Text"),Array("folder/")),0);
> fputs(fopen("test.zip","wb"), $zip->get_file() ); // see get_file()
> ?>
Zip->get_file()
---------------
Very easy : returns a string of compressed files and folders that you
can use in files or send to the client with header("Content-Type...");
See exemple above.
Zip->extract( [ZIP Archive], [Target folder], { Index } )
---------------------------------------------------------
Extract all or part of an archive.
[ZIP Archive] is the (folder/)name of the archive you want
extract.
[Target folder] is the folder where files will be extracted.
Beware ! Permissions must be accessible for PHP !
{ Index } is an array of file indexes you want to
extract. Indexes are descripted in get_list().
If one of thoses index is -1 or if {index} is absent,
the whole archive is extracted
Subfolders are created automatically.
### EXEMPLE :
> <?
> // Extract files with index 1 & 3 to /files
> // and the whole archive to /archive
> include("zip.lib.php");
> $zip = new Zip;
> $zip->Extract("test.zip","files",{1,3});
> $zip->Extract("test.zip","archive",{-1});
> ?>
