Then obviously you too would benefit from taking a look at the Frequently Asked Questions. There is unzip (and lharc) for Unix. As to Unix zip it is not available, but there is work on it. If you want more information on the zip situation please see the compression newsgroups. There has been a number of messages there on the subject lately. ...................................................................
