Sorry, that won't work either. I've been puzzling over this problem
for a while now since I put NT and Visual C++ on my system. I had the
line as you said above which packed ONLY the REPLIES file (at least on
my system.) And the GLOBAL that's packed with yarn has a / (forward
slash) rather than the backslash. It'll probably work as

compress=zip -kjm %f %d\* %d\*.*

or maybe the /, I haven't checked yet. Sounds like a holdover from
Unix.
