Mac users will probably prefer this app.

http://wakaba.c3.cx/s/apps/unarchiver.html

It's free, open source and a whole lot more versatile.

What's wrong with plain old Zip ? Works everywhere, doesn't require me
to download extra tools.

And no, I don't care if <insert whiz-bang new tool> get's 2-3% better
compression. Wake me up when it's 25-50%

Not wanting to complain, mind. Just think it's easier to stick with
simple.

Last time I checked Zip only worked under Windows, there isn't a
version of it for Mac. So either Unarchiver, or Stuffit for Mac are
required to open this archive on a Mac. Unless you've got a old copy
of Zipit for the Mac that works under Classic.

What is this? Mac OS 10.5.7

InfoZip (the zip/unzip you have there on OSX and I have here on Linux)=20
will compile on just about anything.  It's the ONLY zip or unzip tool I've=
=20
used now for the better part of a decade, even on MS-DOS or Windows.

-uso.

OS X does zip/unzip natively when you use the compress option in finder
