[ale] WinZip

[Denny Chambers]

Just an FYI, you can also use Java's Jar utility to unzip .zip files (If 
you have the jdk loaded). The nice thing about jar, is that it works 
much like tar.

jar -tvf file.zip will show a listing without actually unzipping the 
file. (v is verbose)

jar -xvf will unpack .zip files.

jar -cvf can be used to make .zip file.
