Is the desire for (PK)ZIP for unix a desire for a compressor that can
easily make files to go to DOS systems, or a desire for a better
compressor for Unix?

There is, of course, already things like ARC and ZOO for Unix that have
dos equivalents, and of course compress for DOS, although most people do
not seem to have it.    And LHARC and variants.
