How to do a Batch file that get all files in a directory and zip it?

Question

i would like to know how to get all single .bak (or anyother extension) files into a directory, and zipping them (one by one) and save them using the same name, changing only extension.

Thanks

Going to need more information than that, or clarify the question. What do you mean by "all single files into a directory" and from where? — Nixphoe, Jun 18 '12 at 15:19
Suppose i have a directory with 100 bak files: i would like to zip all 100 files (into 100 different zip archive). — stighy, Jun 18 '12 at 15:20
SvenW: the first one.. file1.bak into file1.zip, file2.bak into file2.zip — stighy, Jun 18 '12 at 15:20

For unixoid systems, see this.

On Windows, try something like this in cmd.exe:

for %f in (*.bak) do zipper_software %f %f.zip

The exact syntax for this command will depend on the zip software you use. Note that you likely will end up with archive file names like file1.bak.zip.
