Hi all,

We are planning on exposing ZIP functionality in an upcoming release. In the meantime, there is an undocumented way to create zipped files from IDL, using the KMZ functionality built into new graphics.

Try the following:

void = {IDLitWriteKML} ; just get the code compiled
void = IDLKML_SaveKMZ(outputfile, inputfileArray)

For example:
void = IDLKML_SaveKMZ('myfile.kmz', $
['myfile.kml','myimage1.png','myimage2.png'])

I would not recommend putting this code into a shipping product, as it is certainly not documented or supported. But regardless, it should work on all platforms.

Cheers,
Chris
