How do you attach a folder?

-----------------------------------

A very stupid question.  Not really sure that it fits in "Off Topic", but i couldn't find a better area to post this question.  The question is that when in the "Help" section of Turing, there is the "attach" option below.  But all it lets you do is attach one file.  How does one attach an entire folder?
thanx

you put that folder into a single .zip file and upload that.

Well the intuitive way would be to select the files you want, right-click on the group, and click "Archive".

At least, that's the way it works in OSX. Maybe your operating system has something similar?

Windows has the classic:

Right-click on the file, hover over the "Send to" item, and click "Compressed (zipped) Folder."

Assuming you have the proper packages installed in ubuntu it works similarly to osx :)
