ZipDll still has the original command line interface inwhich "-" is used as
a switch character, the arguments sent from the VCL are turned into a list
of switches and commands which are then passed to dllzip for processing.
I have been doing a bit of work to remove this layer (I dislike the memory
expense of replication long lists).
I will have a try when I can.
