Cleanarchiver Mac Os X

CleanArchiver powerfully supports you to create archives with various archive types and convenient options. Ultimately, just CleanArchiver is enough as the archiver put on your Dock.

Looking at a ticket on the WordPress bug tracker yesterday, I was reminded of a little thing that can be a problem when you use OS X to generate archives for distribution.

The problem

CleanArchiver

The built-in archiver of Mac OS X adds metadata directories and files, like __MACOSX and .DS_Store, to the archives it makes. On Mac OS X these directories and files are hidden by default. On other operating systems, however, in addition to being useless, they are also visible, cluttering the view and confusing the users:

Above are two ZIP archives made on OS X and opened in other operating systems, Linux/GNOME and Windows 7. Notice the __MACOSX folders.What are they? What are they there for? Maybe I can ignore them. But if I can ignore them, why are they there in the first place?Please, someone explain this to me because I feel stupid right now!

The solution

If you use OS X and make ZIP archives that you send to other people or distribute publicly, a simple solution to this problem is CleanArchiver, a little free archiver by Anyakichi that, among other things:
