Using ZIP to archive folders

I'm building a custom CMS solution and the client would like an easy way to download all the assets (/assets) and db backups (/admin/db_backups) in one zip file. I've been struggling to find any sort of solution for this, anyone know of a (relatively) simple way to throw both of these directories into a zip file and allow the user to download them?

So should it be zip or gzip?

Zip file ultimately, it's for a less than tech-savvy client, so something they're familiar with would be best.
