ZipIt is a Macintosh program that zips and unzips archives in a format fully compatible with PKZip for the IBM and zip implementations on other systems.

ZipIt features a complete Macintosh interface. In version 2.0, the ZipIt interface was completely overhauled. Now easier to use than even before, ZipIt makes file compression fun. Mac OS X users will love the fact that ZipIt runs natively on OS X. ZipIt also takes full advantage of the Aqua user interface.

A zip archive is any file that ends with the extension '.zip'. The zip format is popular on the IBM, and is widely used as an interplatform compression format. In addition, ZipIt can compress Macintosh applications and documents without losing any of their data. ZipIt is best used when transferring compressed documents to and from other computer types.

Some examples are: text files, TIFF pictures, Excel databases, and QWK message packets, to name just a very few. Note that files that end in '.Z' or '.gz' are not ZipIt files, even though Netscape may give them a ZipIt icon.
