On the other hand (to give a counterargument to my previous viewpoint)
in many cases there is often more than one output file, e.g. in 
intstrumental pieces with both a score and separate parts. That 
situation is easily handled by zip whereas the traditional UNIX
solution is to make a gzipped tar file, which is harder to handle
for a Windows user unless he has WinZip installed.
