ziparchive - Overview (original) (raw)

overview

Welcome

This is the ziparchive home page, a new and feature-full python package for manipulating zip archives. It supersedes zipfile—from the standard python library—, is built on a more general design, and offers new features such as:

• file-like access to zip members;
• support for BZIP2 compression;
• support for member file removal;
• support for encryption.

This turns ziparchive in a much better replacement for zipfile from the standard library. It's more efficient, it's easier and have a lot more of features!
