PKZIP for Linux

PKZIP Version 2.51 for Linux is compression and .ZIP archiving utility software that enables you to view and extract from TAR, GZIP, UUencode, XXencode, MIME, and BinHex file formats; create UUencoded .ZIP files; and create PKWARE Self-eXtracting (PKSFX) Linux, Windows and DOS .ZIP archives using the registered version of PKZIP. PKWARE SelF-eXtracting (PKSFX) .ZIP archives do not require PKZIP to extract files from an archive. PKZIP for Linux retains and restores standard UNIX file permissions, user ID, group ID, file time of last access and file time of last modification information. The software is also able to compress files based on a specific file type. Optional key word encryption provides secure protection for sensitive data. Works well in a shell script and makes use of list files.
