And by the same logic, a Zip archive is a ZipArchive.  Do a web search
for "zip" and you will find that half of the first set of results are
about zip archives and the other half are about zip codes.  Why are you
assuming zip automatically means zip archive to people?

Because they wil have to enable it manually, after having read:
"Include Zip read/write support"

I doubt anyone sane is going to active this option and think it can
then read and write Zip in php.

It certainly doesn't to me, but perhaps I am too much of a Unix guy so zip 
archives
have never been of much use.

I'm an unix guy too, let see what my current lovely unix knows about zip:

man zip
" zip, zipcloak, zipnote, zipsplit - package and compress (archive) files..."

My other box has unzip too, I'm not sure what how I can unmake a zip
code though ;-)

I'm starting to wonder who are our targets, the mid americans or the
programmers?
