Subject: RFC 90 (v1) Builtins: zip() and unzip()

I just don't like the name zip(), unzip() - shold be saved for something
that will really do commpression.

Variants : combine
I like merge too..

As of this .... it will be good if there some sort of compression internally
by the perl, say for the data structures... I'm not sure how easly this can
be done, but this will big win especialy when worknig on big text files or
arrays (RLE is enought in most cases)..... everyone knows the BLOATED
https's under mod_perl.

For example Interbase DB uses RLE compression for at record level... this is
big saving ...
