You learned that PKZip is a shareware utility for
compressing files. Section 9.5 (see pages 9-24 to 9-25) describes how to use it. For this
project, you must download the PKZip shareware in file pkz204g.exe
to a floppy disk. You should also download the file surprize.zip
After you download these files, you must install
PKUnzip to your floppy disk. To do this follow these steps:
| 1. |
In Windows 3.1, from
Windows File Manager pull down the File menu and select Run, or in Windows 95, from the
Start menu select Run. |
| 2. |
In the Run box type a:pkz204g
to set up the PKZip software. |
| 3. |
Read and pay attention
to the shareware agreement. |
| 4. |
Use PKZip to unzip the
file surprize.zip on your floppy disk. Once you have unzipped
the file, follow the instructions in the readme.txt file to
complete the assignment. |

You can use Windows Notepad to view the contents of the readme.txt
