\note{There is no official file name encoding for ZIP files.
If you have unicode file names, please convert them to byte strings
in your desired encoding before passing them to \method{write()}.
WinZip interprets all file names as encoded in CP437, also known
as DOS Latin.}
\note{Archive names should be relative to the archive root, that is,
they should not start with a path separator.}
