In fact, unzip386 is a very old, DJGPPv1 compiled, version of Info-Zip's
unzipper (IIRC). You can easily compile yourself the LFN-aware Info-Zip[1]
unzip with DJGPPv2. (Only after you have unpacked djgpp, off course;-)
I'm trying to create a unzip which uses PMode/DJ, but I can't get it
to work on machines that have the option NOVCPI on the emm386
device-line. PMode/DJ can't allocate memory then. If we've got a
workable/acceptable work-around for this problem, we could put that on
simtel, instead of unzip386.exe.
bye now,
Robert.
