Hello,
Fairly easy way:
cd ~/Downloads/
open *.zip &&
There is a zip command also which would use less resources as it
doesn't open a window, using this is probably more efficient, and it
might even have an option to delete zip files after they are
decompressed.It It does have option to compress only files newer or
older than a specific date or to move files from one archive to
another. Acopy of the Man page formatted for the browser can be
found at:
https://ss64.com/osx/zip.html
Though typing "man zip" in the terminal is guaranteed to give you the
man page for the version of zip you have on your computer.

Best wishes,

Dear List,
Can someone help me with this problem?
I want to use terminal, or a shortcut, to look in the downloads folder,
Find all zip files and extract them to a folder in my home directory
called Books.
Here is what I come up with no good results.
ditto -x -k *.zip ~ % [200~/Users/robert/Books
Thanks,
Rob
