Portabilit?  Would your proposed .zip work in?:
UNIX:    symlinks
MacOS:   Aliases (but symlinks worl)
Windows: Shortcuts (but Cygwin has symlinks.  
         Does Windows Explorer understand Cytwin
         symlinks?  My script works in MacOS and
         Linux. I'd expect Cygwin and z/OS UNIX.
         Win 10 might be better.)


I could send you mine.
