   Q1 : AFAICS, not here recently.   
   Q2 : I cannot say.   
      
      
      
      
      
      
      
   OTOH : The batch script fragment below would run in 32-bit Windows (and, I   
   suppose, 16-bit Windows [if any] and in pure MS-DOS).   It used some old   
   freeware ZIP program, probably 16-bit code, probably from Garbo.  It does not   
   run in a 64-bit Windows    
   command prompt (using %windir%\system32\cmd.exe).  I have concocted an   
   inferior substitute using the compression facilities built into my Windows 10.   
      
   QUESTION: is there a trustworthy freeware ZIPper that runs in a command prompt   
   of a 64-bit Windows 10 system AND will run the following batch script fragment   
   as is (words ZIP can be changed) with essentially the same results as before,   
   including (a)    
   Windows displays the output ZIP file in the same way as previously, (b) the   
   output ZIP file can by UNZIPped by [i] a matching freeware UNZIPper and [ii]   
   at least most of the available UNZIPping methods that run on 64-bit Windows 10   
   and/or other major    
   operating systems?  If so, where should I get it from?
