zipped

Closed a jacket

Zipped describes something closed or fastened with a zipper: She zipped her jacket against the cold.

It also means moved quickly: The car zipped past us.

In computing, zipped refers to files compressed into a smaller archive format: Send me the zipped folder.

To be zipped is to be silent—lips zipped shut: I'll keep zipped about the surprise.
