yet again, working on streams:

I have a script that grabs files from directory , zips and moves them somewhere else. It works fine except the case when files it grabs are already zipped. Then it trys to zip it again which does not make sence.
How can I check before zipping if file is already zipped?
thanks in advance (3 Replies)
