Reading files/folders and creating a zip file

Hi,

I am using RubyZip and want to read a folder and keep all the sub folders and files and create a .zip file.

Please give me ant sample code on the same.

I tried to read a file like this

file3=open("Ruby/Samples","r")
puts file

Throws permission denied error.

Thanks
