Seems that no-one else suggested this. Use the "novice" command -extract
None of these are case sensitive so they will work on both the command line
or dialog box. Syntax is
-extract archvename file.....
And there is a difference between zoo h & zoo H. Look carefully. H gives
*much* more info & does not include the novice commands.
Here is the first `page' of each command
zoo h
=====
Zoo archiver, zoo 2.1 $Date: 1991/07/24 23:47:04 $
(C) Copyright 1991 Rahul Dhesi -- Noncommercial use permitted
Usage: zoo {acDeglLPTuUvx}[aAcCdEfInmMNoOpPqu1:/.@n] archive file
("zoo h" for help, "zoo H" for extended help)
Choose a command from within {} and zero or more modifiers from within [].
E.g.: `zoo a save /bin/*' will archive all files in /bin into save.zoo.
(Please see the user manual for a complete description of commands.)
Novice usage: zoo -cmd archive[.zoo] file... where -cmd is one of these:
-add -extract -move -test -print -delete -list -update -freshen -comment
zoo H
=====
command line format:
zoo {command}[options] archive files(s)
Commands:
a add files
u - update, replace only if file is newer than saved version
n - new, add if file is not in archive
f - fast, don't compress at all
h - high performance compressor, slower than default
M - move files to archive, delete after saving
c - add a comment to each file added
C - add a comment to the archive as a whole
: - strip directory names, save filenames only
q - quiet (qq suppresses warnings, qqq suppresses nonfatal errors too)
P - pack after adding, remove overwritten or deleted files
(leaves a .bak file, use PP to overwrite it)
I - read filenames from standard input
+ - enable generations
