$ zip -j myzip mydir/* -- Same as above. But mydir name will not be
recorded.
$ zip -rm myzip mydir -- Delete the original files after zipping.
$ zip -r myzip mdir -x \*~ -- Exclude all files that end in ~.
$ zip -u stuff * -- If myzip.zip is already exist then, update new
and modified files from the current Dir.
$ zip -R foo '*.c' -- Travel the Dirs recursively starting at the
current directory and zip all C files.
$ zip -n .Z:.zip:.tiff:.gif:.snd myzip * -- Create myzip.zip file, add
files from current Dir and Don't try compress the specified files.

subdirs that were last modified on or AFTER 06-06-2005.
