Hi dear IBM-MAINers,

First of all  a BIG THANK YOU for your 30+ reactions !!!

This situation is one between z/OSs!
The other site is zipping with PKZIP.

GIMZIP is charming my client.

Question though:
While PKZIP en GIMZIP have both "zip"in common in their namings,
is GIMZIP's "zip-format" compatible with  PKZIP's "zip-format" ?

Rgds,
Jan
