I guess my primary concern is that a user can simply download the

just be able to double-click on it to un-compress it, then have the program

that straightforward with tar?

I wouldn't say there's anything difficult about compressing using
tar+bzip2, which gives much higher compression than ZIP.
In a terminal:
cd to directory containing the directory you want to archive and compress
issue the command: tar cfj name-of-archive-to-create.tbz2
name-of-directory-to-archive
Done
It seems simple enough.
