jrsdead Posted July 7, 2006 Share Posted July 7, 2006 What about the command line tools tar and gzip that are included in every OS X installation? jrsdead Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cyrana Posted July 7, 2006 Share Posted July 7, 2006 bzip2 makes decently small files and any Mac or Linux user can open then w/out installing anything. Terminal program, though. If you want to send to windows users, just make it an 'archive' in the finder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
retroz Posted July 9, 2006 Author Share Posted July 9, 2006 Also found out if you control click the file(s) you can make an archive (ZIP), life should be so simple! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
