[comp.os.msdos.apps] PKZip

I have been using PKZip and unzip for quite some time now and am very happy with them.  I have run into a problem using PKZip though, how does one get it to zip up all subdirectories of a disk, I cannot figure out which flag it is and how to make it work.   Replies via e-mail would be greatly appreciated.

The command is :    pkzip -rp <zipfile> <filename or wildcards>

  The -r traverses the sub-directories and -p stores the pathnames.
When the file is unziped, it will restore the sub-directories in
their proper places.
