It is easier than you think Michel.
The unix philosophy is using many small programs to
achieve the effect of much larger ones ;)
So.. if you wanted to create a zip file with max compression
zip -9 foo.zip file1.txt file2.txt file3.txt
Voila you now have foo.zip
Just drop down to the good ole command line using a
CFEXECUTE or some such and there you go. No Forta tags
needed with Unix.. :)
