Hi,
Everyone knows the very useful Winzip, however some pretty clever "automatic" stuff can be done
using CygWins zip


# zip a webroot but only html or php files
zip.exe  -r web.zip c:/intranet/web/ -i *.php *.htm*

# zip a list of files where  list.txt contains one file name per line
zip all.zip -@ < list.txt 

find . -name "*.[ch]" -print | zip source -@

Now you can start using the above for a regular backup if you link them to a cron
