Zoo Archive (.zoo) is a compressed archive format created in the mid-1980s that stores one or more files in a single file with lossless data compression. It was widely used on MS-DOS, Amiga, and early Unix systems for bundling and distributing software before formats like ZIP became dominant.
WinZip, starting with version 12.1, uses the extension .zipx for ZIP files that use compression methods newer than DEFLATE; specifically, methods BZip, LZMA, PPMd, Jpeg and Wavpack. The last 2 are applied to appropriate file types when "Best method" compression is selected.
