Try Info-Zip's "ZIP" and "UNZIP" tools, at

http://www.simtel.net/pub/pd/40006.shtml

"Zip 2.3 is a compression and file packaging utility.  It is
compatible with PKZIP 2.04g (Phil Katz ZIP) for MSDOS systems."

The free C source code is at 

http://www.simtel.net/pub/pd/40005.shtml

and lots of other sites. I have used it in Clipper

command := "zip -r test *.*"
run (command)
