PS: I would like to keep a list of the various GPC platforms on which the package has been used successfully, so if you are able to compile and use it successfully under anything other than Linux, mingw32 and djgpp, please drop me a line. If you have had to amend anything to make it compile/work correctly, please send me the diffs so that I can find ways of merging the changes into the main distribution.
Works fine under Linux, as far as I can tell, but is missing some error handling (e.g. given an invalid zip file name, it says "-12 files processed").
Crashes with Bus error under Solaris when trying to access a zip file. I suppose it's an endianness problem with the file contents. You might want to look at the "Routines to handle endianness" in gpc.pas.

PS: I'd prefer lower case file names (in the sample command lines, the files themselves etc.), because upper case file names are quite uncommon on those systems where it makes a difference.

Yes. That is the result of lazy programming in the example programs;-/
I would normally expect people to translate the return values of the unzip functions into something sensible.

Ok. Thanks.
