Subject: What is the correct command?

-o means overwrite.  Most (all?) of the ZIP files include copies of README,
COPYING.DJ, etc and if you don't specify -o, you'll get duplicate file
messages.

-dj is not an option, it's part of the file name (unzip-dj.exe).

If you have PKUNZIP 2.04g installed, you can use it to do the djgpp
installation.  Commands would be
   pkunzip -d <djxxxxx> <destination directory>
Or, if you put all the ZIP files in the current directory
   pkunzip -d * c:\djgpp
will extract everything with one command.  The -d flag means use the directory
information in the zip file.
