Exporting Document Set as Zip file using Power Shell Script

SharePoint 2010 has a new feature called Document Set. Each Document Set can consist of multiple files. There is no functionality available on SharePoint UI where we can export all these files from a DocSet into a zip file. This can be achieved using Windows PowerShell Script. Here is the Script to achieve the same:
[System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName("Microsoft.Office.DocumentManagement")
[System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName("mscorlib")

$docsettitle = $args[0]
if($args.length -eq 1)
{
    $maxSizeAllowed = 1000 ## ~ 1 GB
}
else
{
    $maxSizeAllowed = $args[1]
}
$web = Get-SPWeb http://localhost
$list = $web.Lists["TestLib"]
$rootFolder = $list.RootFolder
$docset = $null
foreach($docsetFolder in $rootFolder.SubFolders)
{
    if($docsetFolder.Name.Equals($docsettitle))
    {
        $docset = [Microsoft.Office.DocumentManagement.DocumentSets.DocumentSet]::GetDocumentSet($docsetFolder)
    }
}
$zipFilePath = "C:\" + $docsettitle + ".zip"
$stream = New-Object System.IO.FileStream($zipFilePath, [System.IO.FileMode]::Create);
$docset.Export($stream, $maxSizeAllowed)
$stream.Flush()
$stream.Close()

There are many intresting programs to solve other problems. But one of them interested me and I used it. The program amazed me and would help in any trouble just like me - the winzip wizard cannot open this file; it does not appear to be a valid archive.
