🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so, four functions, four little vibes. let's go. 💅

zzip_file_real — this one looks at your ZZIP_FILE-handle and is like "hmm, are you wrapping a real file, or are you a file that lives inside a zip-archive?" 🕵️ It returns 1 for a stat'able file, and 0 for a file inside a zip-archive. literally that simple, bestie.

zzip_dir_real — same energy but for directories. It checks if your ZZIP_DIR-handle is wrapping a real directory or a zip-archive. Returns 1 for a stat'able directory, and 0 for a handle to zip-archive. 👑

zzip_realdir — this one hands you the posix DIR* handle (if one exists). but listen — check before with zzip_dir_real to see if the the ZZIP_DIR points to a real directory. don't just grab it and hope, that's not the move. 🙈

zzip_realfd — same deal but it's the posix file descriptor (if one exists). and again, check before with zzip_file_real to see if the the ZZIP_FILE points to a real file. fr fr, do the vibe check first. ✨
