and is put in the public domain. It was originally
written in Europe and can be freely distributed from
any country including the U.S.A. (Previously if this
program was imported into the U.S.A, it could not be
re-exported from the U.S.A to another country.) See
the file README.CR included in the source distribution
for more on this. Otherwise, the Info-ZIP license
applies.

BUGS
Large files (> 2 GB) and large archives not yet supported.
Split archives not yet supported. A work around is to con-
vert the split archive to a single-file archive using zip
and then use zipcloak on the single-file archive. If
needed, the resulting archive can then be split again using
zip.
