Code:
zip list.zip list.txt

takes list.txt -> zip -> list.zip

This find files *.txt older than 30 days and converts them to zip archive with the name as you want. bash example:
Code:
find . -type f -mtime +30 -name '*.txt' |
while read f
do
  zip ${f/txt/zip}  $f
done

zip archivename filename ...filename ...filename is the syntax.
