zip is indeed the standard and common command for this, if you don't have it, install it. gzip is definitely not the same thing.

Once you have it, you can use it like zip file.zip a1.txt a2.txt a3.txt which will create a zip file containing all the listed files. Wildcards like a*.txt ought to work.
