Dirk --
Fortunately, the issue with zip corruption (in dealing with files over 1
gig)
is well documented in multiple web locations with test results. I don't
know
the code for Zip, so I can't speak to exactly where in the source the
corruption
occurs, but based upon my knowledge of compression
rm.
So, now I'm confused. Is this a problem with Cygwin or Windows?
Best of luck in finding a solution,
Barry Smith

(rar is only one example) from a cygwin script.
