Hi all,

Is anyone working on the unit zipper?

I came across a problem when using the zip objects on PowerPC - they don't like files zipped on i386, and i386 don't like files zipped with PowerPC, but the PowerPC can zip its own files and read those again.

I guess the zipper unit is lacking a check for big endian processor.

Where can I report a bug for FPC?

Btw, I'm using FPC 2.2.2.

Thanks, and best regards
Normann
