Computer zip/unzip & gzip/gunzip

zip and unzip are old MS-DOS commands, with lots of Windows programs using the same format. gzip and gunzip are GPL [GNU (GNU's Not Unix) Public License) programs which use the same, open-source compression algorithm (LZW, I belive, but I can't remember whose names those letters stand for) to compress files. gzip and gunzip should be installed on your system.
