The BSDs (and most *nixes) can handle basically all the major compression schemes used in the Windows world. ZIP, ARJ, RAR, ACE, you name it, it can do it. The de facto standard(s) for compression in the *nix world are gzip and bzip2, however, combined with tar for archiving directories and multiple files into a single file which then gets compressed by one of the aforementioned tools.
