Hi Bret,
In this case i wish to only remove the directory and sub directories 
pkunzip created when I tried to unzip the first incomplete zip archive.
I will not lose anything, the new correct archive includes all the 
materials that did end up in place plus new material.  As the directory 
is now, I may never find anything because much of what did unzip properly 
is in the  wrong place.
I may back up this just in case, but would feel better starting cleanly 
fresh.
Thanks again,
Kare
