Hi Steven and Peter
Thanks for your suggestions ;-)

On my system there is only ONE UNZIP.EXE !
Since years my preferred ZIP front end is ZIPme V 1.3 !!

ZIPme 1.3 works perfect for me with UNZIP.EXE from Nov, 04th 1997 =

which seems to be V 5.32 !? =

Changing UNZIP.EXE from newer releases i.e. 5.42 or 5.50 indeed =

shows that curious never ending unzipping ;-((

My experiments with the newer releases are changing the UNZIP.EXE =

only in its folder x:\OS2\APPS !

I do not understand ...
=2E.. why is it working with V 5.32 but not with the two newer ones ???
I have tried so many time and would like NOT to go away from ZIPme !?

Another hint or suggestion ?

TIA, svob=EF

This is most likely because you can't configure zipme to understand
changes to the unzip listing output.

I am assuming unzip 4.52 runs just fine from the command line.

If so, your only choices are to ensure zipme uses an older version of
zip/unzip or use a more configurable tool.

HTH, Steven
