How to include zip in a program.
Hello all, Yay! I'm now subscribed to this list. =) As I mentioned earlier, I'm working on a program to gather data from OpenOffice.org files. It's comming along well. It is sort of a grep-like program. One difference is that it can not only match text content, but it can match styles. I think this is very neat. You can take advantage of the logical structure of OpenOffice.org documents. Say you have a document full of poems, and you create a style called "PoemAuthor". With this program you can extract all the authors from the document. Now, I am fiding one significant stumbling block: Zip. OOo files are zip archives. Ruby doesn't come with zip functionality by default, and I don't want to ask people to compile anything to get this program to run. Most of them won't have a compiler. Also, I haven't been able to compile the ruby-zlib pacakge from RAA, so I'm not sure I want to rely on it. Can anyone suggest a good way of solving this? All I need is to extract one file from a zip archive. Currently, the program runs the external program, unzip. Perhaps I should ship unzip along with the program? I think I'm leaning towards this direction. Does this sound like a good approach? I am on a Solaris system, so I would need some help gathering command-line zip programs for the three main platforms: Linux, Mac OS X and Windows. Any thoughts, comments and ideas would be much appreciated.
