simple bat files to get information on ztool resources

so i am testing ztool with plzo it great for tfc file game like THEIF/xcom the bureau/dishonored...
but you need to use z option like plzo:cm0:z it break the checksum of the file if you get bad crc but the same size as the original then you can replace them with the new file and game will work without problem...

*note that you need to use for the first time only plzo:cm0:z on each file separately and then decompress them one by one and make sure you get bad crc only and the same size as the original file...
replace the original file with the new file.
you may get different error while decompression try to compress the file agian it work for me.

now you can use plzo:cm0:z+srep+lzma to compress all of the file of tfc and it will decompress all file wihout problem...
