Zip files contain one or more files.
Zip files make it easy to group files and make transporting and copying files faster.

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. Macintosh users who want to create zipped archives of files for uploading to WebCT can use ZipIt.
