DESCRIPTION
       zipcloak encrypts all unencrypted entries in the zipfile.  This is the default action.

       The -d option is used to decrypt encrypted entries in the zipfile.

       zipcloak uses original zip encryption which is considered weak.

       Note:  The  encryption  code  of	 this program is not copyrighted and is put in the public domain.  It was originally
	      written in Europe and can be freely distributed from any country including the  U.S.A.   (Previously  if	this
	      program  was imported into the U.S.A, it could not be re-exported from the U.S.A to another country.)  See the
	      file README.CR included in the source distribution for more on this.  Otherwise, the Info-ZIP license applies.

EXAMPLES
       To be added.

BUGS
       Large files (> 2 GB) and large archives not yet supported.

       Split archives not yet supported.  A work around is to convert the split archive to a single-file archive  using	 zip
       and  then  use  zipcloak	 on the single-file archive.  If needed, the resulting archive can then be split again using
       zip.
