FUNZIP(1L)                                             FUNZIP(1L)NAME       funzip  -  filter  for  extracting from a ZIP archive in a       pipeSYNOPSIS       funzip [-password] [input[.zip|.gz]]ARGUMENTS       [-password]              Optional password to be  used  if  ZIP  archive  is              encrypted.  Decryption may not be supported at some              sites.  See DESCRIPTION for more details.       [input[.zip|.gz]]              Optional  input  archive  file  specification.  See              DESCRIPTION for details.DESCRIPTION       funzip  without a file argument acts as a filter; that is,       it assumes that a ZIP archive (or  a  gzip'd(1)  file)  is       being piped into standard input, and it extracts the first       member from the archive to stdout.  When stdin comes  from       a  tty device, funzip assumes that this cannot be a stream       of (binary) compressed data and shows a short  help  text,       instead.   If there is a file argument, then input is read       from the specified file instead of from stdin.       A password for encrypted zip files can be specified on the       command  line (preceding the file name, if any) by prefix-       ing the password with a dash.  Note that this  constitutes       a  security  risk  on many systems; currently running pro-       cesses are often visible via simple commands (e.g.,  ps(1)       under  Unix),  and command-line histories can be read.  If       the first entry of the zip file is encrypted and no  pass-       word  is  specified  on the command line, then the user is       prompted for a password and the password is not echoed  on       the console.       Given  the  limitation on single-member extraction, funzip       is most useful in conjunction with  a  secondary  archiver       program such as tar(1).  The following section includes an       example illustrating this usage in the case of disk  back-       ups to tape.EXAMPLES       To  use  funzip  to  extract  the first member file of the       archive test.zip and to pipe it into more(1):           funzip test.zip | more       To use funzip to test the first member  file  of  test.zip       (any errors will be reported on standard error):           funzip test.zip > /dev/nullInfo-ZIP             17 February 2002 (v3.94)                   1FUNZIP(1L)                                             FUNZIP(1L)       To  use zip and funzip in place of compress(1) and zcat(1)       (or gzip(1L) and gzcat(1L)) for tape backups:           tar cf - . | zip -7 | dd of=/dev/nrst0 obs=8k           dd if=/dev/nrst0 ibs=8k | funzip | tar xf -       (where, for example, nrst0 is a SCSI tape drive).BUGS       When piping an encrypted file into more and allowing  fun-       zip  to prompt for password, the terminal may sometimes be       reset to a non-echo mode.  This is  apparently  due  to  a       race  condition  between  the two programs; funzip changes       the terminal mode to non-echo before more reads its state,       and  more  then  ``restores''  the  terminal  to this mode       before exiting.  To recover, run funzip on the  same  file       but  redirect  to  /dev/null rather than piping into more;       after prompting again for the password, funzip will  reset       the terminal properly.       There  is  presently  no way to extract any member but the       first from a ZIP archive.  This would  be  useful  in  the       case  where  a  ZIP  archive  is  included  within another       archive.  In the case where the first member is  a  direc-       tory, funzip simply creates the directory and exits.       The  functionality  of  funzip should be incorporated into       unzip itself (future release).SEE ALSO       gzip(1L), unzip(1L), unzipsfx(1L), zip(1L),  zipcloak(1L),       zipinfo(1L), zipnote(1L), zipsplit(1L)URL       The Info-ZIP home page is currently at           http://www.info-zip.org/pub/infozip/       or           ftp://ftp.info-zip.org/pub/infozip/ .AUTHOR       Mark Adler (Info-ZIP)Info-ZIP             17 February 2002 (v3.94)                   2
