gzip only compresses a single file. It doesn't matter what platform.
That's the spec.

You can use tar to collect several files into one archive and then
compress it with gz. In fact GNU tar will do the gz compression in one
command. See http://www.gnu.org/software/tar/tar.html for details. You
can download a windows version from the cygnus project:
http://www.cygwin.com/.

Otherwise, use any zip program, e.g. info-zip
(http://www.info-zip.org/pub/infozip/) or winzip (http://winzip.com/),
and just use the command-line interface to uncompress the files to
stdout as Analog's UNCOMPRESS command (see
http://analog.cx/docs/logfile.html#UNCOMPRESS for details)
