From /pc/ts/tsfaq17.arc:

11. *****
 Q: Where can I find Unix sources for .arc, .lzh, .zoo, and .zip
file compression.

 A: You can find Unix arc, lharc, zoo, and UNzip packages in the
/unix/ts directory at the anonymous ftp site garbo.uwasa.fi. The
instructions for processing these unix packages are in
/unix/ts/0news-u. Note that there is no zip packing yet for Unix,
only zip unpacking. Many users have also inquired about the source
code for making .zip files, but I don't think PkWare has released
this information.  Work is, however, under way for a zip for Unix.
