'zip' command to roll a zip file from the shell, which saves me a<br>
maddening manual step. I'm going to move this way unless I hear from<br>
John that it's an issue; AFAIK, __MACOSX is used to store useless crap<br>
that will be automatically regenerated like image thumbnails, etc.,<br>
but I do see it when I unpack the Mac archive from 3.10, so I want to<br>
be sure.<br>
