How to set packer filter properly to keep empty folders?
AlanJB:
Thanks for the expanded explanation, Mathias.
As an experiment I just packed (through MC 6.4 Beta), a few files & folders (including empty folders), then opened the .zip in WinZip.
Switched the view in Winzip from "All files" (this is the same as MC) to "Files by Folder" and the two empty folders are, indeed, in the archive. Seems it depends on how you look inside the archive.

"Files by Folder" ?
Eh No.. I dont know what winzip does. But they may choose to not show them or not. I don't know. But it does not have anything to do with that, that is just presentation.
It is about how the zip archive is structured in the file. How the zip format works.
