title: Mac zip compress without __MACOSX folder?
body: <p>When I compress files with the built in zip compressor in Mac OSX, it causes an extra folder titled &quot;__MACOSX&quot; to be created in the extracted zip.</p>
  <p>Can I adjust my settings to keep this folder from being created or do I need to purchase a third party compression tool?</p>
  <p><strong>UPDATE</strong>: I just found a freeware app for OSX that solves my problem: &quot;<a href="https://www.yellowmug.com/yemuzip/" rel="noreferrer">YemuZip</a>&quot;</p>
  <p><strong>UPDATE 2</strong>: YemuZip is no longer freeware.</p>
