The unzip verb above worked fine for installing addons from package
manager but needs an extra line to update the configuration because the
ADDCFG noun has a trailing path separator that the unzip tool doesn't
like. Updated version below seems to work fine.
unzip=: 3 : 0
'file dir'=. dquote each y
e=. 'Unexpected error'
if. IFUNIX do.
e=. shellcmd 'tar -xzf ',file,' -C ',dir
else.
dir=. (_2&}. , PATHSEP_j_ -.~ _2&{.) dir
e=. shellcmd UNZIP,' ',file,' -d ',dir
end.
e
