RE: PkzIP ON ISERIES

I have just completed a housekeeing process that zips IFS directories that 
contain large volumes of historical documents.
It appears the iSeries comes with zip/unzip utilities. These can be run via 
Qshell which of course can be scripted or via native program calls to the 
Qshell API so there was no need to look elsewhere,
