Installation

Vim 8.0+ (+packages)

If you're using Vim 8.0 or greater (if :echo has("packages") returns 1), you can add vim-rzip as a package.

When you're done with the following steps make sure to read about packages::h packages.

$ mkdir -p ~/.vim/pack/bundle/start/vim-rzip
$ unzip ~/Downloads/vim-rzip.zip -d ~/.vim/pack/bundle/start/vim-rzip

Or you can clone the Git repository:

$ mkdir -p ~/.vim/pack/bundle/start
$ cd ~/.vim/pack/bundle/start
start $ git clone 'https://github.com/lbrayner/vim-rzip'
$ mkdir -p ~/.vim/pack/bundle/start
$ cd ~/.vim
.vim $ git submodule add 'https://github.com/lbrayner/vim-rzip' pack/bundle/start/vim-rzip

This will install vim-rzip as agit submodule.

Plugin manager

Either vim-pathogen orVundle are recommended.

Verifying the installation

When you open a file with any of these extensions (per default) —_.apk_, .celzip, .crtx, .docm, .docx, .dotm, .dotx, .ear, .epub,.gcsx, .glox, .gqsx, .ja, .jar, .kmz, .oxt, .potm, .potx,.ppam, .ppsm, .ppsx, .pptm, .pptx, .sldx, .thmx, .vdw, .war,.wsz, .xap, .xlam, .xlam, .xlsb, .xlsm, .xlsx, .xltm, .xltx,.xpi, .zip — you'll see the default zipPlugin.vim message, except that: the plugin name is rzip.vim; and the version, on the first line, should read something like v014.

Configuration

Extra file extensions can be added with g:rzipPlugin_extra_ext. For example:

let g:rzipPlugin_extra_ext = '.odt,.mfh'

Appendix

On Unix-like operating systems, just install the zip and unzip packages.

You can get the unzip.exe binary for Windows here.

A zip-compatible program need only implement the -u (update) command line switch. An example of a zip-compatible dosbatch script for Windows using 7zip:

@echo off

if "%1" == "-u" ( if not "%2" == "" ( if not "%3" == "" ( if "%4" == "" ( 7z u %2 %3 exit /b 0 ) ) ) )

7z %*

Save this as zip.bat and put in your $PATH.
