Try "unzip -La filename.zip". That can often change the case from upper to lower. :-) It also automatically detects text file and change the DOS CR/LF to Unix/Linux's LF (??). Have to watch to make sure unzip is not too overzealous in doing that though! :-) Hope this helps, Anthony -- Anthony Fok Tung-Ling Civil and Environmental Engineering [EMAIL PROTECTED], [EMAIL PROTECTED] University of Alberta, Canada [EMAIL PROTECTED] Keep smiling! *^_^* Come visit Our Lady of Victory Camp -- http://www.olvc.ddns.org/ or http://www.ualberta.ca/~foka/OLVC/
