Since there is so much discussion on one of the threads on zipping/unzipping files and all the associated incompatibilities, is there a way to do this with Python and cut out the middleman?

Python offers a number of modules providing easy file compression and decompression. Here are code snippets for two of the popular compression formats ...

Another question, can zipfile archive several files like tarfile? How would you save the decompresed files?
