Oracle Solaris 10 9/10 SPARC
I'm trying to archive and compress a large directory using zip
zip dir dir
in this directory are some files with a dollarsign like name$whatever. Zip skips those files with an error message
name not matched.
Is there a way to prevent this and have those file included? It's not a problem if the dollar is renamed to some unique string and converted back later.

sorry should have been first, updated question. – dr jerry – 2012-07-20T10:01:55.720
Did you try zip -r (for recursion)? – jftuga – 2012-07-20T12:22:19.553
yes I also tried -r. It works with tar and then gzip. – dr jerry – 2012-07-21T16:30:21.797
