Why > unpack it on your MSX when you have a PC Stupid extensions? What makes them stupid? The fact that you use ZIP and not the other archivers? I don't agree. Standard? Whose standard? ZIP files are standard on DOS/Windows environments, [tar].gz files are standard in UNIX, .sit/.hqx are standard in Macintosh, .ARC files are standard in CP/M and .LZH/.LHA files are standard in the Amiga. .PMA files (and to some extent, .LZH) are standard in the MSX. Learn to use PMEXT (there's a version for PCs, in case you don't like to use your MSX).
