Zip compression is handled by a self-extracting shareware package
pkz110.exe or pkz110eu.exe (the European version without special
encryption).  You can get the goods from any well-stocked BBS (if
you have a modem) or by anonymous ftp (if you have the
ftp-capability) eg from chyde.uwasa.fi (Vaasa, Finland,
128.214.12.3) directory /pc/pd2.
