I don't think you can do that.  Some references I found.  Curious minds
can do more R&D :-)

,---- From http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gzip
| gzip is normally used to compress just single files.[4] Compressed
| archives are typically created by assembling collections of files into a
| single tar archive, and then compressing that archive with gzip. The
| final .tar.gz or .tgz file is usually called a "tarball".[5]
| 
| Gzip is not to be confused with the ZIP archive format, which also uses
| DEFLATE. The ZIP format can hold collections of files without an
| external archiver, but is less compact than compressed tarballs holding
| the same data, because it compresses files individually and cannot take
| advantage of redundancy between files (solid compression).
`----

,---- From zip's manual page
| zip is a compression and file packaging utility for Unix, VMS, MSDOS,
| OS/2, Windows 9x/NT/XP, Minix, Atari, Macintosh, Amiga, and Acorn RISC
| OS.  It is analogous to a combination of the Unix commands tar(1) and
| compress(1) and is compatible with PKZIP (Phil Katz's ZIP for MSDOS
| systems).
