Are these as intended?

Code:
<= E:\Users\vefatica\Desktop\4Plugins\X64\4utils64.dll
<= E:\Users\vefatica\Desktop\4Plugins\4utils.txt
It would be more informative (and more consistent with other commands) if they were prefixed with the zipfile name.

Code:
4utils64.zip <= E:\Users\vefatica\Desktop\4Plugins\X64\4utils64.dll
4utils64.zip <= E:\Users\vefatica\Desktop\4Plugins\4utils.txt

Yes.

The zip file name is already known (and displayed on the command line), so
IMO that isn't particularly useful. (It also takes up a lot of space, and
will cause the line to wrap on subdirectory zips.)

(In the case of the other commands, the target name changes. In ZIP, it
doesn't.)
