How do I create .zip or .txt files?

[Island Roots]

I just posted my first hack and since I don't know how to do a .zip or .txt file, I had to just post the code, which stretched the board majorly. So...how do I do it?

Well, right click on your desktop and choose for "new" and then "Text Document", then put your info in it and save it and then you have a .txt file :D

lol, that i can help someone with telling this :D

Right after I posted this, I just realized how dumb I was....I've known how to make a .txt file all along...but what about a .zip file?

[Lesane]

You need the program Winzip to make .zip files. You can download Winzip for free here: http://www.winzip.com

I already have WinZIP...hmmm....is there a tutorial in there that guides you through how to make a .zip package? I'll go look in a few minutes.

Open WinZip
Click 'new' at the top
Enter a name/path for your new zip file
Click 'Add' at the top
Find the files you want to add and select them all (either individually or one at a time). then click the add button
Then you're done! :)
