I want to be able to compress files in suse so that thay are a .zip file.

When I goto the Gnome terminal I cd to the correct directrory where the file is (Currently.exe) I then put in the following command: zip file.exe

The system waits and then I get the following error message

zip warning: missing signature--propbably not a zip file (did you
zip warning: remember to use binary mode when you transfered it ?)

zip error: Zip file structure invalid (file.exe)

these are files that are resident on my laptop such as .exe files or .mov files.

Any suggestions ?
