zipfile: grabbing whole directories

[Dan Thomas-Paquin]

Hi,
The built in zipfile.write doesn't seem to like  taking a directory instead of  a filename.  

for example:
for each in listofdir:
                archive.write(each)

blows up when one of the items listed in listofdir is a subdirectory.

  File "/usr/local/lib/python2.4/zipfile.py", line 405, in write
    fp = open(filename, "rb")

is there a mode or a '-r' style param I am missing?

Thanks in advance,
Dan
