Zipping Up an LC standalone program

Thanks guys.  I was hoping for a way to automate this and a few other steps
involved in getting my app ready for release by using the standaloneSaved
message, that's why I was using the revZIPxxx commands.

I was also hoping that they would get around the problem I came across with
the built in Mac compress function when the archive is unzipped on a
Windows machine - some unnecessary files are included in the archive -
.dstore if I remember correctly.  I found a program named CleanArchiver
that gets around that problem but, once again, makes it difficult to
automate things using an external program.

I'll give tar a try.
