versiontracker - There's one i've used before called GZipper, There are others, just search for Zip Or you can add the other parts for Stuffit Standard, also a link at versiontracker, but it's now shareware, and has a Zip component. Or, learn to use gzip from the terminal (no downloading - it's in your OSX)

You can be really OSXey and use the (what most people would call) the unix/linux standard compression: TAR-GZIP:

From the terminal:
tar -cvzf [zipe_file_name.tar.gz] [folder/file to be zipped]

Note you have to add the ".tar.gz" yourself, or you can use the other known extension ".tgz"
