| 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. |
| .SH SEE ALSO |

| was added by Dirk Eddelbuettel <edd@debian.org>. |
