[comp.unix.aix] Zip archiver in unix....

fechuny@aix01.aix.rpi.edu (felix chung yau) (06/08/91)

	Hello. I am not sure if this is the proper place to post this 
message.  If it is not please forgive me.
	I have a few files that are archived as *.zip and would like to
un-archive them.  However, I don't have a program to do this.  Could anyone
tell me where I could ftp one if it is available?
	Thank you in advance.
				Felix.

I noticed the following in a different group... Simtel20 is actually
wsmr-simtel20.armiy.mil (192.88.110.20) with clones on
wuarchive.wustl.edu among other places if you have trouble getting
through. Oh yeah, it's a TOPS-20 system so use the tenex option when
FTP'ing.

Subject: Info-ZIP's free UNZIP v4.1 now available from SIMTEL20
I have uploaded version 4.1 of the Info-ZIP project's generic unzip
utility to SIMTEL20:

pd1:<misc.unix>
UNZIP41.ARC     Generic unzip v4.1 for free public distribution
UNZIP41.TAR-Z   Same as above, but compressed tar format

pd1:<misc.vaxvms>
UNZIP41.ARC     Generic unzip v4.1 for free public distribution

pd1:<msdos.zip>
UNZIP41.EXE     Info-ZIP's free UNZIP v4.1 for MS-DOS
UNZIP41.ZIP     C source code for free Unix/VMS/MS-DOS UNZIP

UNZIP41.EXE is a self-extracting archive created via LHA.  It contains
an MSDOS executable of Info-ZIP's generic unzip utility (compiled via
Borland's Turbo C v2.0), plus unzip.man and short text file.

This version of unzip has been ported to a wide array of Unix and
other mainframes, minis, and micros (to include MSDOS, Atari ST (kinda),
and Macintosh).  Although highly compatible with Phil Katz's PKZIP
and PKUNZIP utilities of MSDOS fame, our objective has been one of
portability and other-than-MSDOS functionality.

Please note that UNZIP41.ARC, UNZIP41.TAR-Z, and UNZIP41.ZIP all
contain the same files.  They were uploaded in three different formats
for your convenience.

Of course it's wsmr-simtel20.army.mil without the "armiy." typo.
