Hi,

I would like to zip from stdin, e.g. through some pipe, into a zip
archive. When I unzip the file I would get "./-" as the unzipped file.
I'd like to unzip to some other logical name and not "./-".

For example,

[begin scenario]
% echo 'hello world' | zip > hello.zip
% unzip hello.zip
[end scenario]

unzipping hello.zip will produce a "./-" file.

Thanks in advance,
Khoa.
