In theory, it works for any zip file, but at the moment, you can only
edit zip files created in Rev. Unfortunately, this makes the zip

will work is to risk corrupting it permanently and losing any data in
it.


I have given up on using Rev zip feature and use shell for Mac and compress/decompress for Win.

Here is a small snippet I last used in on of my apps. If anything is unclear, just holler.

 --DECOMPRESS IT
     if the platform is "MacOS" then
          -- MAKE SURE TO ESCAPE THE SPACES
          put tAppPathParent into tShellPath
          replace " " with "\ " in tShellPath
put "unzip -o " & tShellPath & tDownloadedFile & " -x *_M*" into tShellCmd
          put shell(tShellCmd)
     end if
     if the platform is "Win32" then
          put url ("binfile:" & tDownloadedFile) into tData
          put decompress(tData) into tData
          put tData into URL "binfile:Engine Updater.exe"
     end if
