1. Purpose and usage
===========================================================================

ZipTouch "touches", i.e. modifies the date and time of files residing
inside ZIP archives without any need to unpack the files. This is useful
for developers that want all files in their software package to have the
same date and time (e.g. the release date). Optionally, the ZIP file itself
and/or only a subset of the files can be touched.

The program should be self-explanatory, but some things can be pointed out:

   * Dropping an archive on the file list will open that archive for
     touching, while dropping any file on the panel between the toolbar and
     the file list will fetch the date and/or time from that file and set
     them as the current settings.
   * You may give a filename on the command-line to have ZipTouch open it
     upon startup.

1.1 Installation and uninstallation
-----------------------------------

To begin using ZipTouch, no installation is required. Unzip the
distribution archive into some folder and add a Start menu icon if the
suits you. To uninstall, remove the files you previously installed and
remove the HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Magnus Bck\ZipTouch to get rid of
the settings stored by ZipTouch.

===========================================================================
2. System requirements
===========================================================================

The program was developed under Windows NT 4.0 but also works fine under
Windows 95/98. It might also work with Windows NT 3.51 (please drop me a
line if you try it).
