   What's improper about "-" (strictly speaking, "-.")?  It's
valid even on ODS2.  I'll admit that it's often pretty
important to remember to say "-." instead of simply "-", but I
wouldn't call it improper.  Awkward, perhaps, or inconvenient,
but certainly "proper".

   Which Zip was that?  There are complications when the
"archive" is not a file in which one can seek()+tell().  Newer
versions may do better than older ones.
