I am curious if anyone knows of pkzip/unzip software that runs on Unix and is 
compatible with the programs of the same name on DOS.  What I want to do is be
able to ZIP files on my DOS machine, upload them to Unix account, and then 
UNZIP them for use (many are big text files).  Similarly, I would like to be
able to compress files on my Unix system before downloading them (at 2400 baud)
to my DOS machine.  Thoughts, anyone?

Thanks,
