I'm using grep -ril to be able to see all files that contain a certain string:

[user@machine]$ grep -ril "test string"
file1.log
file2.log
file3.log
file4.log
...

I then would like to zip all of the files that have been returned by that command. Is this possible?

I've tried things such as grep -ril myPattern | zip files.zip and grep -ril myPattern | zip > files.zip but nothing has worked so far.

Is there a workaround to this?

Thank you.

I use the 7zSFX Builder program to build my executable .exe from a .7z and even though I always select English in the settings (and everything else), the properties of the executable show Russian.

enter image description here

7zSFX Builder was abandoned and is no longer supported, so I will not get a response from the creator or the forum. So i tried with 7zSFX Constructor, 7-ZIP SFX Maker, and Make SFX, but they don't allow adding or editing information to the executable's properties.

Here it say using Resource hacker. But the problem with this editor (no updates since 2020) is that it does not work for files larger than 1 GB (System Error. Code: 8). I tried with ResEdit, but this editor corrupts files of that size. I managed to change the language only with the Resource Turner

To avoid using 3rd party programs, is there any way to fix 7zSFX Builder issue, so that I can build my .exe with the English language? Thanks

I have files in a .zip archive I want to upload to a remote server over ssh. I want to avoid uploading and then unzipping because the remote server has limited space.

I could unzip the archive locally and then upload the unzipped files. That seems wasteful and then I have to do some cleanup.

Ideally, I'd like the files that get unpacked from the archive to get sent directly to the remote server instead of saved to the local host. Is there a way to do this over ssh?

I have some servers that do a lot of file zipping operations. This also means that all the files have to be remotely downloaded first before being zipped and remotely uploaded, or remotely streamed to clients.
I have the option of either upgrading old servers or getting new ones.

The old server specs are about 3.1 GHz and bandwidth averaging 100 Mbps. The new server specs are about 2.4 GHz and the bandwidth guaranteed to be 1000 Mbps up to 2000 Mbps. Memory usage should remain the same or be reduced in the new iteration.

At this point, I have figured out my RAM and Disk usage. That is not an issue. The question leans on how CPU speeds and bandwidth affect streamed downloads.

Those are my options.
Which option is better for my use case?

How can I create a .zip compressed archive in Windows from the command-line that preserves symlinks?

I'm trying to create .zip file in PowerShell that includes a relative symlink from one file to another file in that archive, but I either encounter an error or the shortcut turns into a non-symlink file after extraction.

mkdir test
cd test
echo 'foo' > bar
cmd /C mklink bar_link bar
cd ..
Compress-Archive -DestinationPath test.zip -Path test

What are the commands I should use to create a .zip file from a directory that contains a relative symlink to a file in the directory to be archived?
