### 21.8 Packaging Eclipse Help files

Eclipse Help allows you to deploy your HTML topic files (but not the XML files) in a ZIP file called doc.zip, or XML and HTML files in a JAR file called doc.jar. Although packaging for topic files is not required for Eclipse Help, it is recommended.

If you run DITA2Go in a .bat file, you can add a command to create doc.zip. For example, if you are using the command-line version of WinZip:

    "c:\program files\winzip\wzzip" -a doc.zip -xg:\*.xml g:\*.*

This command adds everything in the current directory to doc.zip, except files with extension .xml.

DITA2Go provides ZIP packaging, if you provide a ZIP program (such as pkzip.exe or WinZip command-line add-on wzzip.exe) and specify the command and parameters required to execute the program.
