Check your software that does Zip :-)

I got a ZIP file by mail from Aonix and I had to find a way to read it.
The computer store I chose did not have PKzip (a name I have heard) so
I bought some other brand of ZIP software ( don't have the name handy).
The fine print said something to the effect that "the whole world does
ZIP, but some Unix systems produce Tar, so our software will read Tar
as well").

I could not find anything in the top-level Microsoft subscription discs
which does Zip, but NT allegedly has Posix so perhaps that includes tar.
