I know that (and I already knew it), but .... note to the maintainers of the documentation - please state it explicitly; as I indicated I got the "'zip' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file." message as it isn't a standard operating system file. Someone reading this who isn't a developer may not know what's meant. Also please add a note to the effect that its folder *must* be in your path. Just adding a symbol pointing to zip.exe is not sufficient. Presumably there is something else important in the folder.
I've been trying to get 7-zip to do the job. Firstly it needs telling to do "zip" format, which can be done using -tzip. However, it seems to be insisting on putting everything in the file in alphabetical order, which isn't accepted by epubcheck.
So for the moment the answer seems to be that 7-zip can't build epubs. Unless someone can tell me how to sort out the ordering.
Unhelpfully, Richard.

"zip" is the Info-zip program to create and manipulate zip files. 7-zip can create zip files so you just need to adapt the CLI args to add the files you need to a zip archive with an extension of '.epub'
