wget works like a champ.  I looked at t1.txt with Emacs, and it appears
to be a credible copy of the J Web site.

unzip seems to respond as you suggest, too.

| UnZip 5.52 of 28 February 2005, by Info-ZIP.  Maintained by C. Spieler.  Send
| bug reports using http://www.info-zip.org/zip-bug.html; 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
|   -K  keep setuid/setgid/tacky permissions   -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

Does that help?  Does that suggest any other diagnostic or maintenance
action on my part?

Thanks,

Bill
