I'll need to check this, but the only thing I can think of is that the 
switch should be before the filename in older versions of unzip, or it 
tries to unzip files called "-d" and "ram1_":

ex win1_unzip;'-d ram1_ win1_prog_zip'

(This is only from my tired memory, and anyway would only apply to 
older versions. not the current 5.32 and 5.41 QL versions).

The joys of command lines (not!)

One reason why I never got into Linux... the old style command lines I 
saw years ago frightened the life out of me (DOS was bad enough)!
