I have uploaded the source and executables for the new release of
Zip 1.9 and Unzip 5.0 to cs.orst.edu and nova.cc.purdue.edu, both
in the pub/next/submissions directory.  The files are:

     unzip50.tar.Z              unzip source
     zip19.zip                  zip source
     zip19-next.tar.Z           above compiled under 2.1 (zip & unzip)

This new release has countless new features over the old release, but
some highlights are better compression using the new PKZIP "deflate"
method and the ability to use zip and funzip as filters in place of
compress and zcat.
