I use Stuffit to create SIT files for distribution to Macs and ZIP files for distribution to Windows users... And Stuffit has got an option NOT to copy these pesky hidden files...
Works perfect, can advice it to anyone!

I've been plagued by this enough that I thought I would ask...

For me, creating simple ZIP archives on Mac systems that contain a few files
is usually straightforward.  However, I often find that when the ZIP
archives starts to contain nested subfolders, I often wind up with invisible .ds_store files that corrupt the archive when it comes time to decompress on Windows systems. The only recourse seems to be to move folders over to
Windows, delete any .ds_store files, and compress there.

Is there any Mac utility out there that allows one to poke around inside a ZIP archive to delete these extraneous .ds_store files? Or even better, some way to tell Stuffit to ignore/delete these files in the first place?
