This rather simple program is designed to let you use you
Command Line PkUnzip and Zip2Exe utilities from the Right Mouse
button within the Explorer. To run it all you do is run the
"ZipExt" file from either the command prompt or the Explorer.
It will then ask you for the locations of these utilities. The
Changes will go into effect the next time you restart the Explorer.
One suggestion though. To make this more effective, find your
Pkunzip and Zip2Exe utilities. Then right Click on each of them
selecting Properties. Next Click on the Program Tab and make sure
that Close on Exit is checked. This will make the Dos Windows
close when they are finished executing.
This is ShareWare, but it is cheap shareware at $5.00 for
registration.

Unzip this file to where ever you would like. It will run from

I keep it around as a utility. If I find any other useful little
stuff like this I'll probably expand this a little bit.
