+<p>Finally, there are two utilities that can be used on zip files. These are very common
+in the Windows world, so Linux has programs to deal with them. The compression program is
+called <tt class="COMMAND">zip</tt>(1), and the decompression program is called <tt
+class="COMMAND">unzip</tt>(1).</p>
+
+<table border="0" bgcolor="#E0E0E0" width="100%">
+<tr>
+<td>
+<pre class="SCREEN">
+<samp class="PROMPT">%</samp> <kbd class="USERINPUT">zip foo *</kbd>
+</pre>
+</td>
+</tr>
+</table>
+
+<p>This will create the file <tt class="FILENAME">foo.zip</tt>, which will contain all
+the files in the current directory. <tt class="COMMAND">zip</tt> will add the <tt
+class="FILENAME">.zip</tt> extension automatically, so there's no need to include that in
+the file name. You can also recurse through the current directory, zipping up any
+directories that are also laying around:</p>
+
+<table border="0" bgcolor="#E0E0E0" width="100%">
+<tr>
+<td>
+<pre class="SCREEN">
+<samp class="PROMPT">%</samp> <kbd class="USERINPUT">zip -r foo *</kbd>
+</pre>
+</td>
+</tr>
+</table>
+
+<p>Decompressing files is easy, as well.</p>
+
+<table border="0" bgcolor="#E0E0E0" width="100%">
+<tr>
+<td>
+<pre class="SCREEN">
+<samp class="PROMPT">%</samp> <kbd class="USERINPUT">unzip foo.zip</kbd>
+</pre>
+</td>
+</tr>
+</table>
+
+<p>This will extract all the files in the file <tt class="FILENAME">foo.zip</tt>,
+including any directories in the archive.</p>
+
+<p>The <tt class="COMMAND">zip</tt> utilities have several advanced options for creating
+self-extracting archives, leaving out files, controlling compressed file size, printing
+out what will happen, and much more. See the man pages for <tt class="COMMAND">zip</tt>
+and <tt class="COMMAND">unzip</tt> to find out how to use these options.</p>
