+DESCRIPTION
+ zipcloak encrypts all unencrypted entries in the zipfile. This is the
+ default action.
+
+ The -d option is used to decrypt encrypted entries in the zipfile.
+
+ zipcloak uses original zip encryption which is considered weak.
+
+ Note: The encryption code of this program is not copyrighted and is
+ put in the public domain. It was originally written in Europe
+ and can be freely distributed from any country including the
+ U.S.A. (Previously if this program was imported into the U.S.A,
+ it could not be re-exported from the U.S.A to another country.)
+ See the file README.CR included in the source distribution for
+ more on this. Otherwise, the Info-ZIP license applies.
+
+EXAMPLES
+ To be added.
+
+BUGS
+ Large files (> 2 GB) and large archives not yet supported.
+
+ Split archives not yet supported. A work around is to convert the
+ split archive to a single-file archive using zip and then use zipcloak
+ on the single-file archive. If needed, the resulting archive can then
+ be split again using zip.
