Hi,


From the little information OP provided, I'd guess that the issue might be rather related to missing LFN support - either in pkunzip or in her system, while the text files stored inside the zip archives may use long filenames or contain some unusual symbols (spaces...).

Actually, speaking personally, I have always had long file name support. However, while the sub directory idea is an interesting one, that was not the problem. Nor does the file use names with extra spaces or strange characters..the person providing the file respects my needs, sharing some of them. I honestly am unsure why pkunzip triggered the error, because it created the subdirectories perfectly fine regardless. anyway the solution is found, with my now knowing it is wise to remind anyone suggesting Linux ideas or tools that this is a freedos list when that happens in future. Jim clearly prefers the focus be honored.

Another possibility is that the zip files store subdirectories with a slash (/) instead of the legacy backslash symbol. InfoZip processes such entries gracefully, no idea about pkunzip.
