I have a folder with thousands of zipped up files, and each file needs their own file_id.diz description.

Here's the easiest way I can think of, but don't know what program will do it:

A program that will create file_id.diz description files and use the file name minus (without) the extension as the description and add that file_id.diz to the appropriate zip file...

Basically the program allows you to select all the files from a directory, and the program does the rest...

Hope you understand...
This will save me tons of time!

Try something like this:

#!/usr/bin/perl

@f=split(/\n/,`ls -1`);
foreach(@f) {
  next unless(/\.zip$/i);
  `zip -jm "$_" file_id.diz`;
}

This assumes that the file_id.diz files already exist; you should make use of all your /<-r4d script kiddie packer skillz to add a routine to create them.
