There are a lot of freeware zip-unzip utilities, and I'm hoping to
avoid having to test them all to find what I want.

I'd like to find one that supports use of the keyboard, particularly
the use of ctrl+v to add files to an archive, that uses standard
windows controls, and that allows for spanning multiple diskettes or
cd's. Basicly, I like Winzip, I just hope to avoid paying for it!

Thanks.

============================
I don't know if this one does all you want it to do, but it's free and worth
looking at:

Google Ultimate zip.
