.SH NAME

miniunzip - uncompress and examine ZIP archives

.SH SYNOPSIS

.B miniunzip

.RI [ -exvlo ]

zipfile [ files_to_extract ] [-d tempdir]

.SH DESCRIPTION

.B 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

.IR zlib (3)

library and therefore lack many of the features of the

.IR unzip (1)

program.

.SH OPTIONS

A number of options are supported.  With the exception of

.BI \-d\  tempdir

these must be supplied before any

other arguments and are:

.TP

.BI \-l\ ,\ \-\-v

List the files in the archive without extracting them.

.TP

.B \-o

Overwrite files without prompting for confirmation.

.TP

.B \-x

Extract files (default).

.PP

The

.I 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:

.TP

.BI \-d\  tempdir

Extract the archive in the directory

.I tempdir

rather than the current directory.
