Zip And Password Protect In MAC Terminal

Ive never been a fan of MACs, but the company Im with now requires me to use one.  So, I manage.  Recently, I needed to password protect some files I was sending, so I went into a bash session and typed the following:  zip -er [Filename I want to zip to] [Folder I wanted to zip]
So, it looked like this when I was done:  zip -er Shane.zip Shane.Folder
Just FYI if you need to zip up files and password protect them.  The protection works across any platform when someone wants to open the file.
