      -------------

- freeware by EPI and FOX/Taquart
- extracts files from ZIP, TAR, GZ,
  and TGZ archives

SYNOPSIS

xunzip archive [dest] [options]

DESCRIPTION:

xunzip will list or extract files
from an archive. Under SpartaDOS or
DOS XL arguments and options should
be given in the command line. Under
other DOSes, xunzip will prompt for
them. The default action (with no
options) is to extract all files from
the specified archive.
xunzip supports ZIP, TAR, GZ and TGZ
(TAR.GZ) archives.
xunzip supports subdirectories and
is quite portable between machines
(only 48K RAM required) and DOSes
(MEMLO limit $22E4).

OPTIONS:

-d prompt to swap source/dest disks
Useful if you use single disk
drive to extract files to
a different disk.

-i interactive (ask for each file)
Queries you about every file
found in the archive, so you can
choose to Extract this file (by
pressing E), extract All files
starting from this one, Skip
this file, change Dest path, or
Close the archive.

-s blank screen (faster)
Turns the screen off while I/O
and decompression.

-v view archive contents
Instead of extracting, displays
a list of all files in the
archive, with uncompressed sizes
in bytes.

Under SpartaDOS X you should run
via "X", i.e. "X XUNZIP", unless
you use "-v" or extract only small
files. Size of the input buffer
depends on the system variable MEMLO.

BUGS

The only supported compression
method is Deflate and there is no
checking of CRC ! File attributes,
multi-part or encrypted archives are
not supported. There is no text file
conversion. ZIP provides a way to
mark files as text, but this
mechanism is unreliable.
