Unzip Script?

[ifspuds]

Does anyone have a simple Unix/Linux script that will allow me to unzip a file containing the OOTP reports on my host without having to log in via the shell? Or, more to the point, how do other commishes take care of this?

I have shell access to my host, but I'm giving some of the sim duties to someone else in my league and since I have a lot of personal stuff on that site also, I'd rather not hand out that password if I can avoid it.

I used to have a program called Putty, but now I have shell access on my sites, so I don't need it anymore.

I think I deleted it, but try a search for that.

Putty is just a telnet program. My host has unzipping support built into the control panel. But I know there are PHP unzip scripts out there, I just don't have any handy.

if your host supports PHP:

<? system("unzip -o filename.zip") ?>

this little tidbit basically saved my league for an early death. It's not fun to have large file transfers die an annoying death

That did the trick. Thanks, CC.
