I have tried the version 3 of the App Epub zip-unzip and I like it. With a simple drag 'n drop I had my epub zipped correctly.
I'm wondering how can I obtain the same result with the terminal. I make these instructions but at the ended the epub won't open with Ibooks on my mac:

- unzip a working epub exported with iBooks Author
- zip the folder from terminal with the command zip -r newbook.zip newbook -x *.META-INF -x mimetype
- with kitabu I can open the file but no with iBook

There is some problem with the order of the files in the ZIP? I know that the mimetype must go first but I don't know how ZIP engine works on my mac
Or maybe I wrote badly the recursive instruction for the folder META-INF?

All helps are welcome
