Hi,
I have a folder ("allMyMemories") full of files and subfolders. What is the Livecode correct code to zip it in a single archive?

After an intense searching, I found this link: http://lessons.runrev.com/s/lessons/m/4 ... 5-zip-tool
Initially the post affirms that Livecode ZipTool doesn't support folders, but after few paragraph the script handle folders very well. I tested the example script and works! :D
