Since you're posting from a Fidonet BBS, I'll give you a Fido type
answer.  You can f'req COMPRESS.ZIP from EchoMania (1:2250/1) at HST
speeds.  If you're not a SysOp/PointOp and don't do file-requests, my
BBS allows first time callers download access to the files in the Linux
area, compress being one of them...
