miniunzip - uncompress and examine ZIP archives
miniunzip [-exvlo] zipfile [ files_to_extract ] [-d tempdir]
minizip is a simple tool which allows the extraction of compressed file
archives in the ZIP format used by the MS-DOS utility PKZIP. It was written as
a demonstration of the zlib(3) library and therefore lack many of the
features of the unzip(1) program.
A number of options are supported. With the exception of
-d tempdir these must be supplied before any other
arguments and are:
- -l , --v
- List the files in the archive without extracting them.
- -o
- Overwrite files without prompting for confirmation.
- -x
- Extract files (default).
The zipfile argument is the name of the archive to process.
The next argument can be used to specify a single file to extract from the
archive.
Lastly, the following option can be specified at the end of the
command-line:
- -d tempdir
- Extract the archive in the directory tempdir rather than the
current directory.
minizip(1), zlib(3), unzip(1).

Eddelbuettel <edd@debian.org>.
