(Unicode C) Append Files to Existing Zip w/out Rewriting Entire Zip

Demonstrates how to use the QuickAppend method to append files to an existing .zip archive. This method works by editing the existing .zip -- it does not rewrite or recompress the contents of the existing .zip. It is the fastest way to append additional files to a pre-existing large .zip archive. Note: The QuickAppend method is new and available in the pre-release downloads, or in official releases dated after 6-October-2007.
