- Subject: [ANN] lua-zip (now you can write zip files)
- From: Brian Maher <brian@...>

I've added "yet another zip library" to the zip libraries already
available to Lua [1]. This library is based off of libzip from:
http://www.nih.at/libzip/
This one is different from the others that I tried in that you can now
"write" zip files. You can get the library here:
https://github.com/brimworks/lua-zip
The motivation for this library is a power point slide generator that
I wrote to make it easier for me to prepare music slides. If you are
interested in that hack (the code needs major refactoring), you can
get it here:
https://github.com/brimworks/text2slide
It works, but it isn't pretty. The lua-zip binding on the other hand
has been tested a lot more thoroughly (but I don't guarantee it as
being bug free).
Thanks,
-Brian
[1] NOTE: my zip binding is prefixed with "brimworks" to avoid
collisions with the other LuaZip library (which is a binding to
zziplib).
