Specifically for xulsword, the developer has defined a file association for
the extension .xsm (which denotes 'xulsword module'.
It is equivalent to a renamed .zip file, but with the particular feature
that it may be readily installed into xulsword by either drag & drop or by
the file association
Restricting my answer to just one of your points ...
One of the simplest methods to generate a ZIP file for a module is to use
the archive option in the maintenance menu of the Xiphos module manager.
