I use the command line every day, but can't be bothered with all the compression options of tar and company.
zip -r thing.zip things/
andunzip thing.zip
are temptingly more straightforward.Need more compression?
zip -r -9 thing.zip things/
. Need a faster option? Use a smaller digit.The problem with that is that it will not preserve flags and access rights.
