ad 1. No - I'm using it for four years now, and I think it even ran on some W95 boxes. The API functions it uses seem to be very old ones, which didn't change (in the interface, that is) over time.

ad 2. Here's how I use it: I write a batch file with my zip command (using pkzip25 - the good old command-line thingy), with all the parameters etc. Then,

	lcbatFile=Fullpath(Forceext(Sys(2015),"bat"))
TEXT textmerge noshow to lcBat
pkzip25 -add=update -dire <<lcZipName>>  @<<listfile>> ><<logfile>>
ENDTEXT
	lcThere=Fullpath(".")
	Strtofile(lcBat, lcbatFile)
	Local oprocess As api_apprun Of Process.vcx
	oprocess=Newobject('api_apprun','process', '', lcbatFile, lcThere, 'HID')
	oprocess.LaunchAppAndWait()
	Release oprocess
	Erase (lcbatFile)

The major point is using full path for the location of where the process is supposed to run - but that's something you have to pay attention to even with a Run command. The full path for the batch file (or whatever command you are running) is maybe not necessary, but I still supply it, just to be on the safe side.
