Hi Antony,

I don't use the function zip().? I was able to access the R documentation for zip() (package:utils). 

?I am using R 2.15 in Ubuntu 12.04. ? If I wanted to compress files, I do gzip() from linux terminal.? I guess in windows, you can use 7-zip or other WinZip.? Is there any specific reason for you to zip files within R?
A.K. ? ? ??

Hi Arun,



I tried this way, but getting an error like



Using Eclips:

?Error in .rj.originals$help(..., help_type = "html") : 'topic' should be a name, length-one character vector or reserved word?



Using R:

Error: could not find function "zip"



So, is it required to install any package for zip functioning ?

HI, 

If you look ?zip(), the usage is: 
? ?  zip(zipfile, files, flags = "-r9X", extras = "", 
? ? ? ?  zip = Sys.getenv("R_ZIPCMD", "zip")) 
? ? 
A.K.
