Hello AIMMS Community,

This post introduces the AIMMS Zip Library, 
a tool designed to streamline your file management tasks. 
This library provides functions to zip and unzip folders, 
making it easier to handle large sets of files efficiently.

Key features:

• Two AIMMS procedures
  •  zip::pr_zipFolderToFile To compress a folder into a file
  •  zip::pr_unzipFileToFolder To expand a file into a folder
• These procedures provide the same results on Windows and Linux.

Workings:

• On Linux, it is assumed that zip and unzip are installed.
• On Windows, the Powershell Compress-Archive and Expand-Archive are used.

Installation in your application: please use a download links provided in this how-to article.

We hope you find use for these commands.
