hello all.

i have a problem with command for unzip. can anyone help me?

there is unzip on server of my hoster with next commands 

UnZip 5.50 of 17 February 2002, by Info-ZIP.  Maintained by C. Spieler.  Send

bug reports to the authors at Zip-Bugs@lists.wku.edu; see README for details.

Usage: unzip [-Z] [-opts[modifiers]] file[.zip] [list] [-x xlist] [-d exdir]

   Default action is to extract files in list, except those in xlist, to exdir;

   file[.zip] may be a wildcard.  -Z => ZipInfo mode ("unzip -Z" for usage).

   -p  extract files to pipe, no messages     -l  list files (short format)

   -f  freshen existing files, create none    -t  test compressed archive data

   -u  update files, create if necessary      -z  display archive comment

   -x  exclude files that follow (in xlist)   -d  extract files into exdir

 modifiers:                                   -q  quiet mode (-qq => quieter)

   -n  never overwrite existing files         -a  auto-convert any text files

   -o  overwrite files WITHOUT prompting      -aa treat ALL files as text

   -j  junk paths (do not make directories)   -v  be verbose/print version info

   -C  match filenames case-insensitively     -L  make (some) names lowercase

   -X  restore UID/GID info                   -V  retain VMS version numbers

                                              -M  pipe through "more" pager

 Examples (see unzip.txt for more info):

   unzip data1 -x joe   => extract all files except joe from zipfile data1.zip

   unzip -p foo | more  => send contents of foo.zip via pipe into program more

   unzip -fo foo ReadMe => quietly replace existing ReadMe if archive file newer


i'm trying to make next custom command
unzip "!" -x -o "!?&Extract to:?.!"

but WinSCP tell me about error in when i'm trying to run it
unzip "!" -x -o "."

when i'm trying to run it in terminal (unzip "zipfile" -x -o ".") i have 15 sec timeout, but files from zip unpacked...



sorry if english bad

How would I write a command to overwrite the files on the server?

What should the command do exactly?

I havent been able to find the window where I can respond to requests from the server.

You can use only commands that need no response.

Keep in mind that I can use only commands that works on every *nix platform. Otherwise I would face hundreds of bug reports, what I do not want :-) In fact there is only few command I can use. I would not even dare to add the "unzip" command, because I think that even unzip is not supported everywhere.


Hello,

How would I write a command to overwrite the files on the server?

I have tried to do through the command line, Command window and runing the recommended UNZIP custom Command, but I get a "Host has not answered for more than 15 seconds" I end up aborting.

I havent been able to find the window where I can respond to requests from the server.

Thanks!!

There are three example commands. I think it is enough to get the idea and create your own.


yes, for people with some linux knowledge.
i'm using windows all the time and
i still try to find a time to learn linux command.
the only linux i use is the webserver,
which i only do is uploading some files...

Try to add command "unzip !.!", name it for example "&Unzip". Than right-click your uploaded ZIP file and select "Custom Commands ... Unzip".

Adding a "Customize" branch in the leftside tree may improve visibility

like:-

Customize
- Editor
- External Apps
- Icons & Shortcuts
- User Commands

Even though "Customize", Preferences, Options are all the same, word "Custom" will give one a feeling that you can do more

Try to add command 'unzip "!"', name it for example "&Unzip". Than right-click your uploaded ZIP file and select "Custom Commands ... Unzip".

Update: I have corrected the command syntax, there were 'unzip !.!', which was wrong. Also quotes were added for case file name has space in it.

Re: extract files

I would not do this for many reasons.

Some hint that may help you: SSH protocol itself allows compression (see SSH tab of login dialog). If you use SCP protocol, you may setup custom command (see Preferences dialog) that does this.

extract files

a feature so i can upload one zipped file
to the server and then right click and choose
extract files.
then, all hundreds of files extracted.

much faster than i have to upload one file at a time...

or better yet...

if i upload a folder, it automatically compress the folder to one zipped file.
then upload this zipped file and then extract it there.

so much faster...
