Further details for submitting ZIP files

To create and upload ZIP file: If you wish to submit ZIP files the procedure for Windows, Mac, or Linux is as follows:

• Windows:

  To compress a folder, right-click the folder, select Send to .. then select Compressed (zipped) folder . A new ZIP file will appear in the same directory (folder) as the one you selected.

• Mac:

  To compress a folder or group of files, right-click (control+click) on the folder or files and select Compress "...". A new ZIP file will appear on your computer in the same directory (folder) as the files you selected.

• Linux:

  The 'zip' command is available from the command line in most Linux distributions. To compress, say, file1, file2, etc into a single file newfile.zip the usage is: zip newfile.zip file1 file2

  or to compress a directory dir1 (which may have subdirectories) into dir.zip it is: zip -r dir.zip dir1
  (where the option "-r" causes zip to descend recursively into the directory).
