Subject: SCOUG-Help: zip won't zip

=====================================================

When I run this from the command line:

zip -ErSv9$ H:\DriveH.zip h:\*

I get these messages (the lines are going to wrap):

zip warning: first full name: h:/GU20/The Graham Utilities for
OS!2!V21.1/
zip warning: second full name: h:/GU20/The Graham Utilities for
OS!2!V2.1/
zip warning: name in zip file repeated: GU20/The Graham Utilities for
OS!2
V2.1/
zip error: Invalid command arguments (cannot repeat names in zip file)

(the "V2.1/" line displays on a separate line, it wasn't wrapped into a
new line by this email client)

and no .zip file is created.

Here's a DIR /AD of \GU20\ :

[H:\GU20]dir /ad
3-27-99 9:17a

5349 The Graham Utilities for OS!2!V2.1
1-21-01 4:34p 5412 The Graham Utilities for OS!2!V21.1
9-15-98 3:58p 5580 The Graham!!Utilities for OS!2

Neither "DIR TH*" nor "ATTRIB TH*" show any other files beginning with
"TH".

What's causing the error? Is there a "strange" character in the file
name which is stopping the zip.exe comparison? Is there a utility which
can display HPFS file names in hex (perhaps DFSee)?
