{$mode objfpc}
{$h+}
Program testzip;

uses Classes,Zipper;

Var
   S : TStringList;
   I : Integer;

begin
   S:=TStringList.Create;
   For I:=2 to ParamCount do
     S.Add(ParamStr(I));
   With TZipper.Create do
     try
       ZipFiles(ParamStr(1),S);
     Finally
       Free;
     end;
end.

run in directory on linux as

testzip myzipfile *.*

If you are on windows, you need to expand the *.* yourself.
