Slackware 13.37 x86_64 stable is released!

Thanks to everyone who pitched in on this release: the Slackware team,
the folks producing upstream code, and linuxquestions.org for providing
a great forum for collaboration and testing.

The ISOs are off to be replicated, a 6 CD-ROM 32-bit set and a
dual-sided
32-bit/64-bit x86/x86_64 DVD.  Please consider supporting the Slackware
project by picking up a copy from store.slackware.com.  We're taking
pre-orders now, and offer a discount if you sign up for a subscription.

As always, thanks to the Slackware community for testing, suggestions,
and feedback.  :-)

Have fun!

<p>Finally, there are two utilities that can be used on zip files. These are very common
in the Windows world, so Linux has programs to deal with them. The compression program is
called <tt class="COMMAND">zip</tt>(1), and the decompression program is called <tt
class="COMMAND">unzip</tt>(1).</p>
<table border="0" bgcolor="#E0E0E0" width="100%">
<tr>
<td>
<pre class="SCREEN">
<samp class="PROMPT">%</samp> <kbd class="USERINPUT">zip foo *</kbd>
</pre>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
<p>This will create the file <tt class="FILENAME">foo.zip</tt>, which will contain all
the files in the current directory. <tt class="COMMAND">zip</tt> will add the <tt
class="FILENAME">.zip</tt> extension automatically, so there's no need to include that in
the file name. You can also recurse through the current directory, zipping up any
directories that are also laying around:</p>
<table border="0" bgcolor="#E0E0E0" width="100%">
<tr>
<td>
<pre class="SCREEN">
<samp class="PROMPT">%</samp> <kbd class="USERINPUT">zip -r foo *</kbd>
</pre>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
<p>Decompressing files is easy, as well.</p>
<table border="0" bgcolor="#E0E0E0" width="100%">
<tr>
<td>
<pre class="SCREEN">
<samp class="PROMPT">%</samp> <kbd class="USERINPUT">unzip foo.zip</kbd>
</pre>
</td>
</tr>
</table>
<p>This will extract all the files in the file <tt class="FILENAME">foo.zip</tt>,
including any directories in the archive.</p>
<p>The <tt class="COMMAND">zip</tt> utilities have several advanced options for creating
self-extracting archives, leaving out files, controlling compressed file size, printing
out what will happen, and much more. See the man pages for <tt class="COMMAND">zip</tt>
and <tt class="COMMAND">unzip</tt> to find out how to use these options.</p>
