>> 2. pkzip is also available on sonata.

Actually, Info-zip's Zip and Unzip are available on sonata (both
source and compiled).  "pkzip" implies a product of PKWare, which
it is not.  Info-zip is entirely independent of PKWare, but is
fully compatible with PKWare's products for the MSDOS and other
worlds.  Oh, and Info-zip's stuff is free.  PKWare's isn't.
